In a time when truth is under assault and moral clarity is in short supply, MAZON is a voice for both — offering an honest perspective on the reality of hunger and forging solutions that are grounded in Jewish values. Our expertise positions us well to understand that clearing a path forward requires the kind of muscle only robust policy intervention can provide.
Policy Solutions
Federal Policies
MAZON works with policymakers to protect and strengthen federal nutrition programs and advocate for public policies that address the root causes of hunger.
State and Local Policies
MAZON’s state and local initiatives extend our policy expertise to our partners in the Jewish community and the anti-hunger field. Together, we advance public education, community organizing, and policy proposals to eliminate hunger and protect the nutrition safety net.
