Addressing Food Insecurity
Addressing Food Insecurity
CFUW Social Justice Committee will host a special guest speaker from the newly formed Southeast Health Unit, which now includes the former Leeds, Grenville & Lanark District Health Unit. The focus of the presentation will be on food insecurity, a critical issue facing many in our community. Poverty continues to have a significant impact on food insecurity, making this topic especially relevant.
This event builds on previous committee research, including the "Poverty Report," which highlighted poverty issues in Perth and Lanark County such as homelessness, affordable housing, basic income, and food insecurity.
