At Food Bank of the Rockies and Food Bank of Wyoming, we celebrate the diversity of our
service area including cultural diversity, immigrant and refugee communities and communities of color.
We also recognize that societal inequities mean food pantry users from different cultures or races may
experience additional barriers when accessing food services. In response, we’ve developed guidance for
our partners on ways to reduce these barriers and become more culturally responsive.
This guidance was developed with feedback from over 700 food pantry users, 100+ food pantries
and 12 community organizations through surveys, interviews and focus groups. After reviewing this
material, we invite you to complete a self-reflection exercise on page 11. Whether your organization is
just beginning this journey or are already well on your way, we hope you will find valuable information
