Extra Edition: Covid Hunger Emergency.

Demand for food assistance has more than doubled in California during the Covid-19 pandemic and many Latino families struggle to put food on the table despite being more likely to be employed and working. And Latinos are less likely to apply for food help. Community leaders talk about their efforts to reach households facing hunger. This repeat program was originally aired on Dec 10.

Guests: Mauricio Ríos, Organize, Mutual Aid Action, Los Angeles, CA; Genoveva Islas, Program Director, Cultiva la Salud, Fresno, CA; Rodrigo Durán, Manager, Mission Food Hub, San Francisco, CA.
