FOOD INSECURITY

This series on food insecurity in Watertown, co-produced by Watertown News and Watertown Cable Access Television, investigates how hunger is rooted in Watertown. It spotlights the need and use for our local and state food insecurity programs, the people helping on the front lines, and seeks to find out what else can be done. Watertown Cable will be producing a series of programs looking at the issue airing at a later date. The series is made possible, in part, by a grant provided by the Watertown Community Foundation.
