Food Security and Workforce Development

Increase food insecure community members and partner awareness of food security resources, application guidelines, and myths. Some programs of note are:
The Summer Food Service Program, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Women Infant & Children (WIC), Meals on Wheels & congregate feeding sites, area food pantries, etc.

- Improve outreach strategies to increase the number of clients seeing information and following through to receive resources. Co-design content categories (schools, markets, pantries, gardens, rescue); compile contacts/resources; publish a searchable directory and shared calendar. Map SFSP coverage; grocery rescue sites; farmers market benefit acceptance; communal garden locations; identify underserved zones and propose partner activations. Standardize cross-program indicators; build quarterly dashboards;

facilitate Round tables with data snapshots.
