Case Study: Feeding America elevates voices to help end hunger with Precision Strategies

Feeding America gathers 25,000 neighbor voices with Precision to help drive $8B in hunger commitments

Feeding America, the largest nationwide network of food banks, faced the challenge of elevating the authentic voices of people experiencing food insecurity to inform policy at the White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health. They engaged the vendor Precision for communications support to gather these crucial first-hand accounts from their network.

Precision implemented a multi-pronged solution, conducting over 120 listening sessions, a web questionnaire completed by 25,000 people, and a peer-to-peer texting program. They synthesized these insights into a comprehensive data-driven report for the White House. As a result, key policy proposals announced at the conference mirrored Feeding America's recommendations, and over $8 billion in commitments to end hunger were announced. Precision's work helped set a new best practice for centering community voices in policy creation.
