Food Insecurity: Los Angeles County. Food Equity Roundtable December 7, 2022

                                    “We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today. 

We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. 

In this unfolding conundrum of life and history there is such a thing as being too late. 

Procrastination is still the thief of time. 

Life often leaves us standing bare, naked and dejected with a lost opportunity. 

This may well be mankind’s last chance to choose between chaos or community.”

          Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., ‘

          Where Are We Going From Here:  Chaos or Community’. 

BEMA International members in the Los Angeles County region, and Globally:

Reshape the LA model for your community, your region.

Please read the following Monthly Newsletter, LA County Food Equity Roundtable for important information in addressing the food insecurity in your community.  Get involved in the recommendations and use the social media kits noted in the newsletter.

Food insecurity in your region is a serious issue that all members, not only those in the LA community must be involved but all communities globally.

GET INVOLVED! 

Every BEMA International member globally ‘get involved’.

Every member of the ‘whole community’ must be involved in addressing this issue.  From the child in K12, college\university level, the recovery\homeless community, immigrants (amnesty must be provided in gatherings), farmers & workers (urban & rural), senior citizens community.  All must be engaged.

Get involved before the true unending chaos arrives in our communities that will make the COVID-19 pandemic seem like kindergarten compared to what may come.  Don’t wait.  Procrastination is the thief of time
