Learn About Hunger

Educating the public about hunger has been an important part of Hunger Task Force’s mission since 1974. The more we understand about the scope of poverty and hunger, the better equipped our community is to respond.

In this section, you can read our fact sheets, reports, and data to understand how government nutrition programs operate and learn more about the nature of hunger in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and across the nation.

Hunger Task Force is available to give tours of our facility, speak to your adult group, or lead our interactive hunger simulation Food for Today with your adult group.

• University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
