It’s been a strange year for food relief, marked most recently by the sporadic suspension of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) aid during the federal government shutdown this fall. Today on Davisville we talk with two people deeply involved in different areas of Davis food relief: Liane Moody, executive director of the Short Term Emergency Aid Committee, and Max Morgan from the Davis Night Market. They talk about what they’ve seen this year, the growing demand for food assistance, underlying causes, and short- and long-term ideas that could reduce the problem.

We talk about prospects for 2026. “The skeptic in me says, oh, this is going to keep getting worse,” Morgan says. “The one big optimistic point, which Liane [talks] about too, is the way the community has stepped up support as things have hit a whole another nadir. It’s really impressive.”
