22% of LGBTQ+ adults live in poverty, which makes this community twice as likely as others to face hunger. In this podcast, Ami speaks with Senior Scholar of Public Policy Bianca Wilson, PhD, of UCLA’s Williams Institute about the unique challenges that LGBTQ folks face around food insecurity. What contributes to LGBTQ people coming up against barriers to accessing food? Dr. Wilson and Ami explore cultural, geographic, and other issues that play a factor.
