One in four grandparent-headed households experiences food insecurity
Graphic says "The rate of food insecurity for grandparent-headed households (25%) is more than 60% higher than the rate for all households with children (15%). This text is depicted by two people and next to each one a grocery bag with one showing the number 25% and the other bag showing the number 15%.
A graphic with text that says "The rate of food insecurity for older (60+) grandparent-headed households is more than three times higher than the rate of comparable households with no children." The graphic supports this by showing a child with 2 grandparents will a showing basked of food and next to them a family of 2 adults with a large basket filled with food.
