FROM HANNAH: Food insecurity has been an issue in the Lake Houston community long before the rst wave of the COVID-19 pandemic hit the Greater Houston area in March 2020. Since then, however, in ation, supply chain issues and a lack of volunteers has made meeting increased needs in the community even more challenging for local food banks and pantries. To learn more about how these nonpro t organizations are adapting to these challenges, see our front-page story, which continues inside (see Pages 20-21). Hannah Zedaker, EDITOR
