Statement in Response to the FY27 Enacted Budget
Feeding New York State, on behalf of our 10 member food banks and in collaboration with nearly 3,000 pantries, shelters, and community-based organizations, thanks the Governor and the Legislature for increasing funding for the Hunger Prevention and Nutrition Assistance Program (HPNAP) to $72.8M and maintaining Nourish New York at $55M. We recognize that recent federal cuts have put increasing strain on state budgets, and appreciate the Governor for continuing to prioritize investments in food assistance programs.
