As the pandemic continues, so many citizens of Louisiana are without jobs and suffering from nutrition insecurity. The Client Choice Food Pantry at Hope Ministries of Baton Rouge has stepped up its assistance. Roughly 15,000 duplicated people are fed each year through HOPE’s Client Choice Food Pantry. The grocery store setting creates an atmosphere of dignity by allowing clients to select food that meets their families’ nutritional and health needs. Clients also have access to a Client Resource Specialist to help identify and address other needs.

Additionally, Hope Ministries offers financial literacy, healthy living, nutrition, and gardening classes for those interested in moving forward. This program serves the 70805 zip code.
