Mapping the Meal Gap
The San Antonio Food Bank serves across Southwest Texas with a 29 county service area. It is imperative that the gaps in our map are continually assessed to better serve our communities, and this information is vital for you to better advocate for your neighbors!
The COVID-19 Pandemic has also drastically changed the landscape of food insecurity all across the nation. Feeding America has researched how this is impacting and will continue to impact counties all across Texas.
