The COVID-19 pandemic has heightened food insecurity across the country. In this report we describe creation of a novel emergency department (ED) food bag program in New York City. The food bag program was designed to help meet immediate food needs of patients being discharged from the ED. Each bag contained shelf-stable food as well as a handout describing other community food resources. The program leveraged community-hospital partnerships, was met with enthusiasm from patients and staff alike, and would be highly replicable to other settings.https://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/156010/1/FINAL_Food bag program article_complete_7.2.20.pdfDescription of FINAL_Food bag program article_complete_7.2.20.pdf : Main Articl
