A new task force aimed at tackling food security issues is set to launch next month, as discussed in the recent Legislative Health and Human Services Committee meeting. This initiative follows the successful model of the women's health group and aims to bring together key stakeholders to develop a more effective approach to sustainable food security in New Mexico.

Committee members emphasized the importance of community engagement, particularly in reaching underserved areas such as San Miguel and Water County. The goal is to ensure that all voices are heard and that resources are accessible to everyone in these communities.

As the task force prepares to kick off, the focus will be on fostering collaboration and dialogue among various groups to address the pressing challenges of food security. This initiative is expected to play a crucial role in enhancing the well-being of residents across the state.
