Greater Cleveland Food Bank - Hunger & Health Coordinator

The Greater Cleveland Food Bank is the largest hunger relief organization in Northeast Ohio having provided over 55 million meals in 2020 to hungry people in Cuyahoga, Ashtabula, Geauga, Lake, Ashland and Richland counties. The organization's mission is to ensure that everyone in these communities has the nutritious food they need every day. In our three-year strategic plan, we will improve access and outcomes for people we serve by better tracking success. We will begin to measure the impact of our work for the people we serve in regard to their (a) increased food security (their access to nutritious food, every day) and (b) their health and well-being. We will reduce access gaps for underserved populations and communities, identifying barriers to service and developing plans to address them. We will do this in collaboration with the people we serve and our partners.
