Virtual Hunger Simulation

1 in 5 Arkansans are food insecure. For children that number jumps to 1 in 4. What does being food insecure mean? At some point during the year—due to job loss, marital status, or natural disasters—your household is suddenly disrupted because you are without enough money and nearby resources to feed yourself or your family. This hunger simulation will allow you to experience a day in the life of a person facing hunger, and the heart wrenching decisions they must make daily to survive. Could you survive a day lived by neighbors facing hunger? Take the virtual Hunger Simulation.
