【看中国2026年8月18日讯】纽约讯,纽约市老年局(NYC Aging)今日宣布启动一项为期一个月的计划,旨在帮助解决纽约市老年居民面临的食品保障问题。该计划将在8月期间,于全市五大行政区举办数十场免费的“快闪”分发活动,共计分发约24,000袋新鲜农产品。
纽约市老年局与八家社区组织合作,资助了这些每周举办的农产品分发活动。活动旨在将新鲜果蔬直接送到老年人居住的社区,方便他们获取。每家参与活动的机构每周将分发约600袋新鲜农产品,从而为数千名60岁及以上的纽约市民提供更多食品选择。
“通过这项令人振奋的计划,纽约市老年局正将新鲜、营养丰富的农产品直接送到五大行政区的各个社区,”纽约市老年局局长Lisa Scott-McKenzie博士表示,“我们与社区伙伴携手合作,不仅帮助数千名老年人更便利地获取健康食品,还将他们与纽约市老年局提供的更广泛服务网络联系起来。”
“纽约市老年局的‘农产品快闪’计划是一项首创举措,体现了本届政府致力于减轻纽约市生活成本压力,并确保老年人在其居住社区获得营养食品的承诺,”负责卫生与公共服务的副市长Helen Arteaga博士说道,“我们很自豪能与Scott-McKenzie局长及其团队以及社区组织网络合作,开创创新方式,为有需要的纽约市老年居民提供至关重要的资源。”
当前,许多老年人仍面临食品价格上涨和经济压力加剧的困境。许多60岁及以上的纽约市民依靠固定收入生活,并受到近期食品援助计划(包括SNAP和Medicaid)削减的影响,这使得他们获取新鲜、营养食品变得更加困难。
该项目得以开展,离不开与以下机构的合作:
Bay Ridge Center
Encore Community Services
Hamilton Madison House
Homecrest Community Services
Jewish Association Serving the Aging(JASA)
Jewish Community Center of Staten Island
Korean Community Services
Mosholu Montefiore Community Center
除了这些临时分发活动外,该机构还在全市300多个老年人中心提供集体供餐服务,并为无法出门的纽约老年居民提供送餐上门服务。我们鼓励纽约老年居民参加预定的农产品分发活动,或致电Aging Connect(电话:212-AGING-NYC或212-224-6469),以了解更多关于该项目及全年其他营养援助计划的信息。
