Did you know the stress of food insecurity—not knowing where your next meal will come from—is a direct threat to mental well-being?
🥫 In Maine, the numbers are alarming: Nearly 1 in 7 Mainers face hunger.
🥕 Maine has the highest rate of child food insecurity in New England …(1 in 5 children).
The constant worry can trigger or worsen conditions like anxiety, depression, and high stress levels. This is a cyclical pattern where food insecurity can lead to mental health issues, and those issues can increase the likelihood of subsequent food insecurity.
You are not alone, and there is help. If you or someone you know is facing uncertainty and needs food assistance:
📞 Call 2-1-1 to get connected with food banks, pantries, and meal programs across Maine.
💻 Find local meal sites through the @feedingmaine.
