Descripción de Policy Radio | Feeding America’s Sophie Milam on Food Insecurity in America

Sophie Milam, Feeding America Sophie Milam is Director of Nutrition Assistance and Budget Policy at Feeding America, the nation’s largest hunger-relief organization representing a network of over 200 food banks nationwide. Sophie works on federal hunger and nutrition policy with a focus on SNAP and child nutrition programs. As chair of the 50-member Food Policy Working Group, Sophie builds partnerships to engage diverse national organizations in hunger and nutrition policy and coordinate their advocacy efforts. Prior to Feeding America, Sophie was Senior Domestic Policy Analyst at Bread for the World and spent several years working as a legislative aide in Congress. She has also worked on political campaigns at the local and national level. She is a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. This week, on Chicago Policy Radio, food policy expert and hunger advocate Sophie Milam discusses the state of food insecurity in the United States, recently-passed farm bill legislation, and the connection between the two. While the aftermath of the recession left more families food insecure and accessing SNAP benefits, the political climate in Washington stressed focus on deficit reduction. How did this paradox play out in the negotiations of the legislation, and how does the final legislation impact food assistance programs? Tune in to find out. This podcast was edited and produced by Anne Knapke. Feature Photo: cc/(amazonaws.com)
