Kristen Wild's OpEd on Hunger in the Missouri Independent

AGency recently placed an op ed in the Missouri Independent for Operation Food Search, sharing information about the importance of a report on hunger in the United States that was cancelled by the federal government:

"To be clear, without the USDA’s annual survey we will not know how many Americans have enough to eat. Hunger is not static. It evolves with every storm and every policy change.

Cancelling this research does not cancel hunger; it simply makes it harder for us all to clearly see challenges and address them."

– Kristen Wild, President & CEO of Operation Food Search

The announcement to cancel the report was made on a Saturday afternoon. AGency immediately swung into action, gathering data and insights that could be used for the op ed, assisting with writing, monitoring national response, and helping our client see the potential risks associated with a public statement. We had the piece created and placed by Monday.

Quotes from Kristen were picked up in media sources nation-wide.

Supporting our clients' advocacy efforts while positioning them as thought leaders is one of the most impactful facets of our work. Click here to read the full story.
