In the second episode of our Washington Series, Caitlin Welsh interviews Radha Muthiah, president and CEO of the Capital Area Food Bank, the largest hunger relief organization in the Washington metro area. Ms. Welsh and Ms. Muthiah discuss the state of food security in the region both prior to and throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, particularly how the pandemic has changed the demographic makeup of the food-insecure population and assumptions about hunger. Ms. Muthiah explains Capital Area Food Bank’s role in advancing access to food and resources across the DMV and how the organization has creatively adapted to the challenges of the pandemic. Finally, Ms. Muthiah speaks to the importance of holistic approaches to food security, the goal of building a truly inclusive regional food system, and opportunities to eradicate hunger.
