Gov. Phil Murphy visited the Community Food Bank of New Jersey in Hillside on Wednesday to address food insecurity.
He met with local officials to discuss available programs and ways to ensure no one goes without food.
"That no child goes to school hungry, that no parent goes to work hungry, that no senior goes to bed hungry. And that no community should lack fresh and nutritious foods, and not just during the holiday season, but every day,” Gov. Murphy said.
The Community Food Bank of New Jersey has been helping residents for more than 45 years.
