Overview
Healthy Harvest Corps (HHC) is an Ameri Corps program administered by the Ohio Association of Foodbanks as part of a coordinated statewide effort to expand and sustain Food Is Medicine initiatives. These initiatives recognize access to healthy food as a critical component of improving health outcomes and overall well-being. Ameri Corps volunteers will play an important role in addressing hunger as a social determinant of health by supporting programs that connect individuals and families with nutritious food resources.
Through the Healthy Harvest Corps program, OAF will place 13 Ameri Corps members at 8 host sites across Ohio to support Food Is Medicine initiatives and strengthen community‑based hunger relief efforts. This position is located at Second Harvest Food Bank of North Central Ohio, the regional nonprofit committed to hunger relief.
