Justine Koksal, who leads operations at the Food Bank of the Albemarle in northeast North Carolina, sees every day how the two work together. Food banks can respond in a moment of need, while SNAP gives families the ability to plan ahead and choose what works for them.
"SNAP provides families with the dignity to select foods that are most appropriate for their household, whether it's because of their cultural preferences or health needs," Justine says.
Two systems, one goal: keeping families moving forward.
