Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
* Determine the effect of implementing an in-hospital food support intervention for low-income parents on reutilization and family-centered outcomes.
* Among families with baseline food insecurity, determine the effectiveness of a post-discharge food support intervention and as-needed social work referral on reutilization and family-centered outcomes.
Researchers will compare the in-hospital food support intervention and will be rolled out to sequential hospital units. In addition, the post-discharge food support intervention will be compared to standard discharge.
Some participants will:
* Receive in-hospital meal cards or standard care during hospitalization
* Receive post-discharge food support intervention or standard discharge
* Complete a 14-day post discharge follow-up survey
