Brown Bag: Food Insecurity
2018-08-14 12:00 - 13:00 (America/Denver) | Webinar
Hunger isn’t about too many people and too little food. Hunger is about inequality. When individuals are hungry, they are forced into impossible choices that make them vulnerable to violence or to staying in violent relationships.
Join Hunger Free Colorado’s Maryann McLendon (Food Assistance Program Manager) and Taylor Washington (Community Engagement Manager) as they present an overview of hunger in Colorado, research on the health-related impacts of hunger, and resources opportunities to prevent and address hunger.
