Please briefly describe the proposed program, including an explanation of how it aligns with the Town of <br />Chapel Hill and Carrboro’s Results Framework, and Orange County BOCC Goals and Priorities, and the target <br />population to benefit from the program. (250 words or less) <br />As the largest non-profit provider of food security in our community for all residents, IFC <br />ensures a community network of basic human services and infrastructure that <br />maintains, protects, and promotes the well-being of all County residents. IFC’s <br />Community Kitchen serves hot meals daily to anyone who is hungry, and the Community <br />Market provides groceries, personal care items, and emergency financial assistance to <br />prevent eviction and utility disruption. IFC’s food programs help ensure residents are <br />accessing the most appropriate social safety net services, thereby advancing the towns’ <br />priorities to increase residents’ livelihood security and support residents within and <br />beyond IFC. Food security is necessary for residents’ economic and social well-being and <br />their ability to take opportunities to thrive. Throughout the pandemic, we have continued <br />food security services and met the increased needs of the community members who show <br />up at our door. <br /> <br />11.
