More Than Food: How Parents, Policy, and Economic Mobility Help End Child Hunger

In this episode of Add Passion and Stir, host Billy Shore talks with Maureen Conway, vice president at the Aspen Institute and executive director of the Institute’s Economic Opportunities Program, and Giselli Veloz, senior program manager of parent engagement and recruitment for LIFT in New York.
The conversation explores why ending childhood hunger requires more than food alone — it also means supporting parents, reducing systemic barriers, and creating pathways to economic mobility. Maureen explains how the Aspen Institute’s Economic Opportunities Program advances promising policies and practices that help low- and moderate-income people connect to better opportunities and build better lives. Giselli shares how LIFT’s coaching, cash infusions, and trust-based support help parents move toward stability.
Together, they make the case that poverty is not an individual failure but the result of systems, and that real change comes from policy, partnership, and lived experience. If you care about child hunger, family well-being, or practical solutions to poverty, this is an essential listen.
