Mission and Program Overview

Mission

The mission of the food brigade is to ensure that no child or adult in new jersey goes hungry.

The mission of the food brigade is to ensure that no child or adult in new jersey goes hungry, and to establish food security for our neighbors facing poverty and systemic inequalities. We accomplish our mission by (1) providing direct food assistance through our network of client-choice community markets, and (2) implementing a holistic approach which includes the offering of wraparound services to address the root causes of food insecurity. We strive to treat all who come to us for assistance with the highest level of dignity and respect, in a trauma-informed manner. Our guiding principle is compassion for our fellow man.

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part III, Line 3

“The food brigade's three locations have been redesigned as community markets, which emulate as closely as practical the experience of shopping in an actual grocery store rather than receiving assistance from a food pantry. Our community markets embrace trauma-informed approaches to promote safety (both physical and emotional) and resist re-traumatization, and otherwise bring the greatest level of dignity and respect to the food assistance process.”

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0THE FOOD BRIGADE'S THREE LOCATIONS HAVE BEEN REDESIGNED AS COMMUNITY MARKETS, WHICH EMULATE AS CLOSELY AS PRACTICAL THE EXPERIENCE OF SHOPPING IN AN ACTUAL GROCERY STORE RATHER THAN RECEIVING ASSISTANCE FROM A FOOD PANTRY. OUR COMMUNITY MARKETS EMBRACE TRAUMA-INFORMED APPROACHES TO PROMOTE SAFETY (BOTH PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL) AND RESIST RE-TRAUMATIZATION, AND OTHERWISE BRING THE GREATEST LEVEL OF DIGNITY AND RESPECT TO THE FOOD ASSISTANCE PROCESS.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2A COPY OF THE TAX RETURN IS EMAILED TO ALL BOARD MEMBERS FOR THEIR REVIEW AND INPUT
