Description
Child hunger is a serious, and often invisible, problem in Colorado. In thousands of homes in Colorado, parents are struggling to put enough food on the table. The problem of child hunger in Colorado has risen dramatically as poverty has worsened. In the last decade, the rate of child poverty has skyrocketed to 15 percent, nearly an 80 percent increase. Colorado now has the fastest growing rate of childhood poverty in the nation.
