The Working Hungry is a 30-minute film built around the stories of three families and, through them, the stories of more than 700,000 people across Indiana. Most of these are working families, and their hunger is hidden from those around them. The compelling documentary asks why food insecurity and hunger are so prevalent in a time of low unemployment and food abundance and what can be done. The Working Hungry will dive deep into the reality of food insecurity in Indiana and what more could be done to destigmatize the conversation, more clearly understand underlying causes, and, indeed end hunger. Throughout 2023, screenings of The Working Hungry and relevant discussions will occur statewide, hosted by over 30 organizations. After the documentary, we will have a panel discussion to discuss how this topic impacts those in LaPorte County. Discussion Over Dinner is free to attend, we just ask that attendees register in advance to know how much dinner to prepare.
