Listen: Bread's 2012 Hunger Report
The causes of hunger in the United States are rooted in poverty.
Millions of Americans earning low wages struggle to put food on the table and make ends meet.
We need to create good jobs for everyone who can work, provide adequate work supports, and offer incentives so low-income workers are able to save and build wealth.
Good Jobs
For many Americans, the U.S. labor market no longer works as a reliable way to build a stable career and support their families.Work Support Programs
We must expand access to affordable health care and child care, and strengthen tax credits such as the Earned Income Tax Credit and Child Tax Credit, which help working families.Child Nutrition Programs
Child nutrition programs—school lunches and breakfasts, summer feeding programs, and the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program—are critical to ending childhood hunger. When children receive the nutrition they need, they are more likely to move out of poverty as adults.Email Signup
