The Austin Community Development Commission meeting on December 10, 2024, highlighted significant achievements in local food distribution and community engagement. The meeting served as a year-end review, showcasing the commission's efforts and successes over the past year.

One of the key discussions centered around the food distribution program, which reported a substantial increase in participation. The commission noted that they had set a target of enrolling 800 individuals but successfully enrolled 1,178, achieving a success rate of 147%. This increase reflects the growing need for food assistance in the community.

Additionally, the total amount of food distributed this year reached 82,980 units, a notable rise from the previous year's total of 63,980. This increase indicates not only a higher demand for food resources but also the effectiveness of the commission's outreach efforts.

The meeting concluded with a sense of optimism about the ongoing food distribution initiatives and the positive impact they have on the community. As the year comes to a close, the commission remains committed to addressing food insecurity and supporting local residents.
