Food Insecurity

Advocating for food security entails working to reduce hunger and improve public health by ensuring all community members can access safe, nutritious, and affordable food. To combat food insecurity in our communities, poverty, food deserts, and agricultural stability must be addressed. 

Specific to education. food stability in the school community enables students to be prepared physically for learning and more time can be spent on school-centered activities outside of school. (This is in comparison to the current masses of students who can not participate in school-centered activities outside of school because they must provide or help to provide food for their families.)
