Federal policies and community-based programs have the ability to prevent increases in food insecurity, particularly for populations that have risk factors, such as households with children; single-parent households; low-income households, especially those in rural areas; Black and Hispanic households; and, households experiencing economic hardships.
Methods: This study is bas ed on a cross-sectional survey that was administered in 2018 and 2019 to food pantry clients, an already food insecure population accessing resources, in Eastern Massachusetts.

Background: Food insecurity (FI) is more prevalent in people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF) than the reported national prevalence, but there are limited data on the relationship between FI and health outcomes in PwCF.
