Food Security Advisory Group

As part of Our Neighbors' Table's 2020 Strategic Plan, we have convened the Food Security Advisory Group (FSAG) and its Assessment Working Group to develop a plan to better understand where and why food insecurity persists in our region.  Once the barriers to food are identified, the advisory group will create a plan to cross those barriers and build food secure communities.

​FSAG members include Anna Jaques Hospital, Children’s Health Care, Mayor Holaday (Newburyport), Mayor Gray (Amesbury), superintendents and school personnel from the Newburyport, Merrimac, Pentucket and Triton school districts, the Merrimac Police Department, Pettengill House, Newburyport and Salisbury Councils on Aging, and the Greater Boston Food Bank.
