Supporting Nutrition Security for Military Families through a Multilayered Approach

Supporting Nutrition Security for Military Families through a Multilayered Approach

About This Webinar:

Join this interactive workshop to discover strategies to improve nutrition security for military families. Learn about the Spectrum of Prevention as a public health framework to understand systemic drivers of hunger, poor nutrition, and chronic disease and explore the nuanced ways these challenges show up in military families. Through thought-provoking conversations, participants will brainstorm a range of solutions while a graphic artist produces a visual representation of the dialogue in real-time.

This webinar is part of the Food Security in Focus collection. Among our nation’s active-duty service members and their families, an estimated 24 percent are food insecure. Food insecurity adversely impacts racial/ethnic minority populations, lower-income populations, and rural and remote populations. Additionally, a rise in economic insecurity throughout the Covid-19 pandemic has contributed to increased food insecurity in vulnerable populations. Join OneOp as we focus on expanding food security for the military family and mobilizing family service professionals at federal, state, and local levels to work together on this issue.
