Expanding Food Access – Programs, including the City’s new partnership with Mercato, expansion of the Get the Good Stuff program, supporting NYCHA resident-owned businesses with emergency food market opportunities, and reducing operational requirements for the Emergency Food Assistance Program (EFAP) – will bring online grocery shopping, meal deliveries, culturally appropriate food, and affordable fruits and vegetables to New Yorkers in neighborhoods hardest-hit by COVID-19.
