Additional Information on Homelessness Outreach and Community Food Programs

Another indicator of food insecurity among Richmond residents is the volume of weekly community and outreach meals prepared to support those in need across the city. In 2025, the Richmond Food Aid Delivery (FAD) Coalition, a network of meal providers and the After Hours Outreach Program overseen by Refuge Church, estimated that 2,200 meals were prepared and delivered each week to individuals experiencing or at risk of homelessness in Richmond. While providers record the number of meals distributed, personal information is not collected from individuals accessing the services in order to uphold privacy and dignity. As a result, information is not currently available on how many unique individuals are being supported or how many people may be accessing multiple meals per week, which would help indicate varying levels of need within the community.
