Who is Hungry in Florida?
According to US Census data, Florida 's population has grown 19.5% while the number of people in poverty has grown 43% in the past decade. Many of Florida 's children go to bed hungry at night, even in the most affluent counties of Florida . Hunger remains a serious problem for a sizable number of Floridians.
The number of families in need of help with basic food in Florida continues to grow. The fastest growing segment of families in need are the ones that have at least one family member working, and in some cases, working more than one job. There are varying degrees of poverty.
