End Hunger CT! leads statewide efforts to end hunger through a combination of direct outreach, education, and advocacy. We work to connect individuals and families to nutrition programs while also fighting for long-term policy solutions that eliminate barriers to food access.
Our programs are designed to meet people where they are—whether that’s a family in need of SNAP benefits or a school district seeking universal school meals. Here’s what we do to build a hunger-free Connecticut:
We help individuals and families apply for and maintain their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits. Our trained staff provides one-on-one support with applications, eligibility screenings, and redetermination paperwork.

Through SNAP-Ed, we provide nutrition education that promotes healthy eating on a budget. We offer cooking demos, grocery store tours, and resources that help families make informed food choices with their SNAP benefits.
End Hunger CT! proudly leads the School Meals 4 All CT campaign, which advocates for universal free meals in public schools. No child should have to learn on an empty stomach.

During the summer months, when school is out, many children lose access to regular meals. We promote and support free Summer Meals sites across the state, helping parents and children locate food resources when school is not in session.
