HUNGER ORGANIZATION PROFILES

Organization Name: WHY Hunger
Address: 505 8th Avenue, Suite 2100
New York, New York 10018
Date Started: 1975
Geographic Scope: National and International
Organizational Objectives and Description: WHYHunger builds the movement to end hunger and poverty by connecting people to nutritious, affordable food and by supporting grassroots solutions that inspire self-reliance and community empowerment. Founded in 1975 by the late singer/songwriter Harry Chapin and current Executive Director Bill Ayres, WHYHunger works to put an end to hunger suffered by nearly 50 million Americans and 1 billion people worldwide through the following programs:

The National Hunger Clearinghouse collects, develops and distributes information and resources to help build the capacity of emergency food providers to address the immediate needs of struggling families and individuals while promoting self-reliance and access to health food. The Clearinghouse includes the National Hunger Hotline, (1-866-3HUNGRY or 1-866348-6479), which refers people in need anywhere in the U.S. to food pantries, soup kitchens, government programs, and model grassroots organizations.

The Grassroots Action Network provides capacity building services, mentoring, training opportunities, and technical assistance to organizations that are actively forging new ideas to transform communities and end hunger and poverty. Together with a network of more than 8,000 grassroots organizations, we share their innovations, mobilize resources, and connect them to each other in order to support their work to build healthier, sustainable communities that develop local food systems and strengthen local economies.

The Global Movements program works through international and U.S. civil society networks to link WHYHunger's domestic work on hunger and poverty to global movements for food sovereignty and the basic rights to food, land, water, and sustainable livelihoods for all people.

Artists Against Hunger & Poverty enlists performing artists to raise funds and awareness for the most innovative and effective community-based organizations fighting hunger and poverty on the frontlines in cities, towns, ad villages all across the world. WHYHunger offers artists, the artist community, and the music industry an opportunity to take a stand by using their voices and resources effectively Ð doing what they already do so well. Through music we can all make a difference in the world.

At its core, WHYHunger is s grassroots support organization. We provide services and resources that enhance the capacity of community-based grassroots organizations worldwide to build sustainable alternatives to the challenges their communities face. We also knit these grassroots organizations together in order to build a broad-based social movement to end hunger and poverty.

Organization Name: Detroit Black Food Security Network (DBFSN)
Address: 3800 Puritan Avenue, Suite 200
Detroit, Michigan 48238
Date Started: 2006
Geographic Scope: Local, beginning to have National influence
Organizational Objectives and Description: DBCFSN works to build food security in Detroit's Black community by: 1) facilitating mutual support and collective action among members; 2) promoting urban agriculture; 3) encouraging co-operative buying; 4) promoting healthy eating habits; 5) influencing public policy; and 6) encouraging young people to pursue careers in agriculture, aquaculture, animal husbandry, bee-keeping and other food related fields.

Size of Organization and Population Served: We currently have 55 active members. We serve thousands each year through our youth programs, farm tours, annual harvest festival, lecture series and produce sales at local farmers markets. Detroit's African American community is approximately 550,000. Additional Information: Since our founding in 2006, the Detroit Black Community Food Security Network has contributed significantly to both the ideas that drive Detroit's "Good Food Revolution" and to the practice of developing community food security and food justice models. We currently operate D-Town Farm, a four acre organic farm in a City of Detroit park. We manage multiple operations at the farm including the planting, cultivating, irrigating, and harvesting of fruits, vegetable and herbs. We manage hoophouse construction and extended-season growing, bee-keeping, mushroom cultivation, composting and agri-tourism. We manage transporting and selling of our produce at five farmers markets in Detroit. We recruit and manage hundreds of volunteers each year.

Since August 2009 we have operated the Ujamma Food Co-op Buying Club. This project has served as a learning lab the retail food coop that we envision. It has helped us to refine our skills in marketing, distribution, record keeping, and volunteer management. We have learned a great deal from the Healthy Food Hub in Chicago, operated by the Black Oaks Center for Sustainable and Renewable Living.

We operate other programs including the Food Warriors Youth Development Program, which engages young people at three Detroit schools in experiences that teach them about food security, food justice and organic agriculture, and the "What's for Dinner? Lecture Series co-sponsored by the Detroit Public Library, which presents quarterly talks about food, where it comes from, who controls it and how we can acquire greater control of the food system that impacts our lives.

Organization Name: Jones Valley Urban Farm
Address: 701 25th Street North
Birmingham, Alabama 35203
Date Started: 2002
Geographic Scope: Local, with current National dialogue
Organizational Objectives and Description: Jones Valley Urban Farm is located in Birmingham, Alabama, and began as a small neighborhood project serving community members and businesses in the metropolitan Birmingham area. Over the past 9 years, the organization has grown in geographic focus, audiences served, and mission, to address pressing issues both here at home and in the national dialogue around food security, nutrition, and urban organic agriculture.

This mission of Jones Valley Urban Farm (JVUF) is helping Birmingham grow organic produce and healthy communities through urban farming and education. The model for JVUF's success is based on the vision of integrating an urban farm with experiential education and community health. Our organic farming program has seen amazing growth in the last few years, both from our ability to grow a greater quantity of healthy food and from the market demand for these products. Our health education programs have seen a similar expansion. We currently have a much greater demand for our services than we have staff or facilities to provide. With these realities in mind, Jones Valley Urban Farm has developed a social impact model that confronts the significant health and environmental issues in our Birmingham community. We seek to improve access to and consumption of fresh healthy food and to provide education about why and how to incorporate fresh healthy food into school systems and food insecure communities. Jones Valley Urban Farm executes our model through four programs: Growing Together - a community garden training series for neighborhoods, churches, and schools; Farm 2 School Ð a policy reform initiative targeting institutional change around school meals; Seed 2 Plate Ð a hands-on nutrition education curriculum delivered to K-8th grade children on our urban farm; and Delicious/ Nutritious Ð a nutrition education and training program for institutional cooks.

JVUF employs 9 full-time staff, 2 seasonal part-time, and seven seasonal college interns. We manage 28 acres of urban and peri-urban agricultural farm land, and serve more than 5,500 people per year through education and outreach programs. Our target audience is early childhood learners, primary and secondary students, and families in the Birmingham region who are confronted with health and food security issues.

Geographic Scope: Local, Regional Ð Milwaukee, Madison and Chicago/plans for International
Organizational Objectives and Description:
Mission - Growing Power is a national nonprofit organization and land trust supporting people from diverse backgrounds, and the environments in which they live, by helping to provide equal access to healthy, high-quality, safe, and affordable food for people in all communities. Growing Power implements this mission by providing hands-on training, on-the-ground demonstration, outreach, and technical assistance through the development of Community Food Systems that help people grow, process, market, and distribute food in a sustainable manner.
Goals -
1. To support the development and sustainability of community-based food systems, including framers markets community gardens, school-based gardening and agricultural projects, and small/local farmers.
2. To offer hand-on training and technical assistance in sustainable agricultural techniques that can be implemented in urban or rural settings.
3. To develop Community Food Centers Ð local places where people learn sustainable practices for growing, processing, marketing, and distributing food.

Growing Power is nationally recognized for its leadership and impact in promoting community-based food security through urban and sustainable agriculture projects and programming. Its headquarters are based in Milwaukee, EI with satellite offices in Chicago, IL and Madison, WI. Established in the early 1990's, Growing Power was envisioned as an educational farm for Milwaukee inner-city youth to learn new skills. The original vision of Growing Power has grown into an international center for sustainable agriculture, hands-on education, and food policy advocacy. Today the urban farm is one of the most productive food and education centers in the country. Each year thousands of visitors tour the Milwaukee-based Growing Power National Training and Community Food Center that produces enough food to feed 10,000 people. The organization composts over 20 million pounds of food waste annually into nutrient rich soil; raises over 100,000 fish, 500 chickens, 40 goats, 19 beehives, turkeys, and ducks; partners with agencies, schools and corporations to convert unused urban properties into new urban farms; offers various " green" job-training programs to youth and young adults; and provides workshops and training to thousands of eager entrepreneurs who work to duplicate Growing Power's food production systems and programs.

Will Allen, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Growing Power, has become recognized as perhaps the preeminent voice and practitioner for urban agriculture in America and throughout the World. With 50+ years experience in organic agriculture, Will is an innovator and leader in methods of composting, vermicomposting (using worms to fertilize and refine compost), and aquaponics (growing fish and edible plants in a closed loop system). These and other intensive growing methods result in remarkable yields of food, even in a very small area. Today, Growing Power employs a staff of 60 and is involved in more than 70 projects in Milwaukee, across America, and throughout the world. Will has trained and taught in places as far-flung as Ukraine, Macedonia, and Kenya, and has plans in place to create Community Food Centers in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Haiti. In the U.S., Growing Power is developing fifteen Regional Outreach Training Centers in thirteen states.

In 20008, Will Allen was awarded a prestigious John D. and Katherine T. MacArthur Foundation "Genius Grant" and named a MacArthur fellow Ð only the second farmer ever to be so honored. Will is also a member of the Clinton Global Initiative and on February 9, 2010 was one of four national spokesmen who joined First Lad Michelle Obama at the White House to launch her Let's Move! Initiative to reverse the epidemic of childhood obesity by 2015. In May, 2010, TIME magazine named Will to the TIME 100 Most Influential People.

WISDOM FROM OUR PAST CREATING SOLUTIONS FOR OUR FUTURE

TOCA's Food System & Wellness Program creates physical, spiritual, cultural and economic wellness through the promotion of the traditional foods, O'odham sports, and the Sonoran desert farming that has supported the Tohono O'odham community for countless generations. TOCA has worked on native foods and children' health since its first year, when we planted a quarter acre community garden after school in Sells with kids from the neighborhood. Since then, TOCA's work has expanded to include:

1) A 125-acre farm producing over 250,000 pounds annually, of organic, traditional O'odham foods, including tepary beans, O'odham squash, and 60-day corn;
2) The Desert Rain CafŽ, serving tasty, nutritious meals using O'odham foods (www.desertraincafe.com);
3) Active collaborations between the local schools, families, nutritionists, farmers, and youth. The O'odham Foods Initiative, or O'odham Hai'cu Hu:g, currently provides over a thousand public school students and three hundred Head Start children with a weekly lunch made from locally-farmed, culturally-relevant, and highly nutritious ingredients. O'odham Hai'cu Hu:g emerges directly from TOCA's guiding principles and follows from the enthusiasm of community members, young adults leaders, and the Tohono O'odham Food and Fitness Coalition's strategic planning goals which seek to improve health, nutrition, and education in our community

6) TOCA's Cooking Club won a national farm-to-school lunch competition in May, 2010. The club had high school members of TOCA's youth leadership group, Young O'odham United Through Health and was mentored by a chef from TOCA's cafŽ.

HOMELESSNESS ORGANIZATION PROFILES

Organization Name: Shelter Partnership
Address: 523 West Sixth Street, Suite 616
Los Angeles, CA 90014
Date Started: 1985
Geographic Scope: Local
Organizational Objectives and Description:
Shelter Partnership began operation 26 years ago on March 3, 1985 in response to the growing homeless population in Los Angeles County. While we focus on ending homelessness in our region of 10 million people, we also contribute to homeless policy efforts at the State and national levels.

Shelter Partnership exists tot assist frontline social service providers who work daily to meet the needs of the estimated 51,000 persons who are homeless each night in Los Angeles County. The S. Mark Taper Foundation Shelter Resource Bank solicits large-scale donations of new merchandise from manufacturers, distributors and retailers, and distributes these goods free of charge to more than 200 agencies/projects annually, including outreach programs, homeless shelters, transitional and permanent housing providers countywide. Success of this project is measured by the amount of goods we are able to secure and distribute to agencies/projects serving the homeless. More than $177 million has been secured since 1989. During FY 209/10, we distributed over $8.5 million in new goods to 225 agencies/projects, and secured an additional $13 million.

We also provide technical assistance to grassroots agencies and planning and consulting services to local government in the form of applied research, strategic planning, program development, grant writing, capacity building, and community education. These efforts have helped these agencies raise $1 billion in federal funds in the past 17 years.

Shelter Partnership works with a variety of other agencies and corporate partners to successfully implement the S. Taper Foundation Shelter Resource Bank project. We receive donations from corporations such as The Clorox Company, Hasbro, Macy's and Vans as well as many small companies. We also have an ongoing partnership with Kids In Distressed Situations (K.I.D.S.), a New York-based international solicitation/distribution agency, that has ready resulted in more than $18 million worth of goods for children since November 1990, including shoes, infant's and children's clothing, bedding, furniture and toys.

Organization Name: People Assisting the Homeless (PATH)
Address: 340 North Madison Avenue
Los Angeles, California 90007
Date Started: 1984
Geographic Scope: Local Ð W. Los Angeles, Hollywood, Central Los Angeles
Organizational Objectives and Description:
PATH was founded in 1984 by a community collaborative of churches, synagogues, businesses, and concerned citizens that came together to address the problem of homelessness in Los Angeles. The group's mission is "to end homelessness for individuals, families and communities" through creative approaches, collaborative efforts, embracing change and promoting self-sufficiency.

PATH operates our services out of three facilities (West Los Angeles, Hollywood, and Central Los Angeles), connecting clients to a comprehensive continuum of housing (emergency, transitional, permanent), street outreach, employment preparation and placement assistance, individualized case management, and supportive services.

Since 1984, PATH has pioneered bold and effective approaches to assisting those in need. The opening of our Regional Homeless Center in 2002 revolutionized the way communities respond to homelessness by bringing together 98 beds of transitional housing with our innovative PATHMall collaborative. Through the PATHMall, homeless individuals gain access to more than a dozen supportive services in one convenient location, including: mental health care, substance abuse treatment, healthcare, legal aid, public benefits assistance, individualized case management, employment services, and even a full service beauty salon to help prepare clients for job interviews and restore their sense of dignity and self-worth.

PATH has become one of the largest providers of homelessness prevention and re-housing services, so critical in the face of this economic downturn, in the State of California. We currently oversee the Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re-Housing Programs (HPRP) for the cities of Paramount, Bellflower, Lakewood and South Gate, and were contracted in October 2010 by the County of Los Angeles to provide HPRP services to cities that do not operate their own HPRP programs, covering 66 cities and unincorporated areas across Los Angeles County. We are also one of three Regional Coordinating Agencies providing Rapid Re-Housing services for the City of Los Angeles.

PATH's strategic approaches to ending homelessness are resulting in successful outcomes and the creation of model programs that have been replicated in many other communities. By providing homeless and low-income individuals with the full range of resources they need to achieve self-sufficiency, PATH is working toward the ultimate goal of eliminating homelessness throughout Los Angeles and America.

Additional Information or Comments: In the constant pursuit of excellence and implementation of effective solutions and nationally recognized best practices, PATH is transforming from a traditional homeless services agency into one focused on permanent supportive housing development, rapid re-housing, strategic outreach and homelessness prevention, better enabling us to permanently end homelessness for the most vulnerable individuals and families in our communities. In this effort, PATH has partnered with the United Way of Greater Los Angeles to implement the acclaimed Home for Good Plan.

Organization Name: U.S. Veterans Initiative
Address: 800 West 6th Street, Suite 1505
Los Angeles, California 90017
Date Started: 1993
Geographic Scope: Local
Organizational Objectives and Description:
Mission and History Ð U.S. VETS is the largest Veteran specific non-profit service provider in the country. Our mission is to facilitate the successful transition of military Veterans and their families into the mainstream. U.S. VETS has been providing housing and wraparound support services, including case management, employment assistance, job placement, counseling, as well as drug and alcohol free housing to vulnerable Veterans for the past 18 years. At our facilities Veterans progress through a seamless continuum of services designed to help them increase their level of responsibility and prepare them to live independently in the community. We coordinate our services with a wide variety of service agencies and community partners. We strive to empower each Veteran to take responsibility for his or her success, elevate each Veteran's sense of psychological well-being and self-esteem, guide each Veteran on the path toward independence in the community, develop and promote each Veteran's workforce skill, and support the recovering Veteran by maintaining a drug and alcohol free environment.

In 1993, U.S. VETS opened its inaugural site, Westside Residence Hall in Inglewood, California. Five veterans were brought into the facility in May of that year and the site has since grown to house 450 Veterans. In 2000, U.S. VETS opened its second site in Long Beach (U.S. VETS Ð Long Beach) at the Villages at Cabrillo on 26 acres of former Navy housing. U.S. VETS Ð Long Beach has since expanded and is now the largest transitional and permanent housing facility for homeless Veterans in the country, presently housing over 550 homeless Veterans each night. U.S. VETS provides services to homeless and at-risk Veterans at 10 sites across the country. Long Beach (CA), Inglewood (CA), Riverside (CA), Houston (TX), Las Vegas (NV), Barbers Point (HI), Walanse (HI), Prescott (AZ), Phoenix (AZ), and Washington, D.C. Each year, U.S. VETS will help 3,000 Veterans find a place to call home and over 1,000 Veterans through outreach services, provided residential services to over 20,000 Veterans, and placed over 8,000 Veterans into jobs. The Need We Serve Ð The needs of America's homeless Veterans pose a lingering challenge. A recent Department of Veterans Affairs report estimated that 107,000 Veterans are homeless in America on any given night Ð at least twice that many will experience homelessness at some point in the year.

At U.S. VETS, our role is ot limited to helping homeless Veterans find jobs and housing. We aim to increase awareness, educate the community about Veteran needs, and help to create an environment that is responsive to the challenges Veterans face as they transition from military to civilian life. As the largest Veteran specific non-profit service provider in the country, we have the unique ability to create programs and activities at scale to effect change for the maximum number of Veterans. The mainstay of U.S VETS services has been a combination of single-site sober transitional housing, supportive permanent housing, and employment reintegration assistance programs to help homeless and at-risk Veterans achieve self-sufficiency. However, we are embracing new strategies to meet the needs of an ever-changing, heterogeneous Veteran population. This represents a significant evolution and philosophical shift in service delivery beyond the single-site sober, supportive housing model that has anchored U.S. VETS' services for the past 18 years. The expanded services are neither haphazard nor accidental. Borne out of a unity of purpose Ð serving Veterans and their families wherever they might be Ð our increasing capacity is based on a continual evaluation of Veteran service needs, best practices, and assessment of our internal core competencies.

We are currently expanding our transitional and permanent housing, homeless prevention, and mental health counseling services to serve the increasing number of homeless Women Veterans with children, Veteran families, and Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans throughout the community. U.S. VETS just initiated the Mothers with Children program, one of only a handful of Veteran=specific programs across the country designed to meet the needs of homeless Veteran mothers while they maintain custody of their children.

Organization Name: Hearth, Inc. Ð Senior Homeless Initiative
Address: 1640 Washington Street
Boston, Massachusetts 02118
Date Started: 1991
Geographic Scope: Local
Organizational Objectives and Description:
Hearth is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the elimination of homelessness among the elderly. In Greater Boston, Hearth develops and operates affordable, service-enriched housing geared for homeless and low-income elders, assists elders in locating appropriate and affordable options in other community housing through its Outreach Program, and provides important support and stabilization services, all necessary to ensure permanent housing placements.

On a national level, Hearth, Inc. and the Corporation for Supportive Housing (CSH) have joined together to further a dialogue about the impending crisis of elderly homelessness, and the importance of providing permanent service-enriched housing for seniors who are homeless or at-risk of homelessness in order to end elder homelessness in our country. To build a National Leadership Initiative to End Elder Homelessness, Hearth and CSH have created a National Policy Advisory Panel to look at policy implications and solutions, in order to help create a policy paper with clear goals and a path for the creation of affordable service-enriched units for vulnerable elders. To help inform and guide the Panel's findings and final recommendations to local, state and federal policy-makers, an October 20, 2011 convening is being planned in Washington DC to bring together elected and appointed officials from across the country, advocates, housing providers, and elder service providers, including health and mental health providers, to discuss the unique needs of this population and examine best practices and solutions to the crisis.

Population: The homeless elderly may be one of society's neediest population groups, and it is growing. The 2009 Annual Homeless Assessment Report to Congress estimates that 262,672 homeless individuals, age 51 or older, resided in our nation's emergency shelters or transitional housing programs between October 2008 and September 2009, comprising 25% of all homeless sheltered individuals in the U.S. during this period. The National Alliance to End Homelessness projects that homelessness among the elderly will increase by 33% between 2010 and 2020, and will more than double between 2010 and 2050.

Additional Information or Comments: Homeless older adults suffer from many of the deprivations experienced by the general homeless population, but they also face distinct challenges typically not addressed by traditional approaches to ending homelessness. Because of age and/or disability, the homeless elderly are largely a post-employment population, so programs that focus on job training, employment opportunities, and asset development often do not address their situations, and therefore, will not help them achieve housing stability. Most homeless programs help people move towards independence, but for older adults, as they continue to age they are likely to become increasingly dependent on services. The central objective of Hearth's housing programs is to assist vulnerable residents to age with dignity by attending to their physical health, mental health and social needs. Hearth has a multi-disciplinary professional team of masters-trained licensed social workers, registered nurses, personal care homemakers, site directors, and overnight managers.

Organization Name: A Community of Friends (ACOF)
Address: 3701 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 700
Los Angeles, California 90010
Date Started: 1988
Geographic Scope: Local, Multi-city, Regional, National
Organizational Objectives and Description:
ACOF's mission is to end homelessness through the provision of quality permanent supportive housing for people with mental illness. ACOF was the first agency to successfully implement the "permanent supportive housing" model throughout LA County. After more than 22 years, ACOF is considered the premiere developer of service-enriched housing for homeless persons with mental illness in Southern California. While our main goal remains to develop housing for people with special needs, we are also responsive to the current housing market. The overwhelming demand for affordable housing in Los Angeles has compelled us to expand our development objectives; we now offer a variety of housing including apartments for low-income families with special needs, senior citizens, emancipated foster youth, and those unable to secure decent housing for a reasonable portion of their household budget.

With ten projects in various stages of predevelopment, ACOF has one of the more aggressive production pipelines among Los Angeles County affordable housing developers. Our central objective is the acquisition of a site and subsequent development of a project. Our staff secures all project financing, performs community outreach, assembles the project team and manages the project through all phases of development, construction activity and lease-up.

In addition to developing affordable housing for homeless and low-income individuals and families living with mental illness, ACOF provides supportive services to tenants with the objective of increasing their skills, offering opportunities for establishing and maintaining their ability to live independently. ACOF provides Residential Service Coordinators in 12 of the 30 buildings in our portfolio and partners with community-based social service agencies to provide services in the other 18 buildings. Approximately 80% of ACOF's tenants have special needs (mental health or substance abuse histories). ACOF's buildings are developed within close proximity to neighborhood services, and on-site case managers are available to connect tenants with these services. Other on-site supportive services, such as mental health and substance abuse recovery, are tailored to meet tenant needs and are provided free of charge.

Additional information about our organization: Individuals and families with special needs cannot effectively address their issues without a place to live. ACOF's buildings benefit the community through the permanent housing of people who would otherwise be living on the streets, creating a potential threat to the community as well as a substantial cost to society in terms of providing emergency and law enforcement services. ACOF has an exceptional retention rate - 86% of formerly homeless tenants with mental illness maintain their housing for at least 12 months with another 55% housed for over three years. ACOF staff provides education in independent living skills such as meeting lease obligations, compliance with house rules, budgeting and paying rent, conflict-resolution and work-force re-entry. Other services include health services; counseling and goal support; substance abuse recovery; and nutrition workshops. Additionally, many of our tenants now volunteer their time, have enrolled in school, or have reconnected with estranged family members. As a result of building safe, decent and affordable housing with on-site services, ACOF tenants are not only able to stay stable in housing, they develop skills and tools to achieve self-awareness and discover their possibilities as productive community members.
