EP44 Building a Path to a Food Secure Future with City Harvest - a podcast by NYU School of Global Public Health

Join us as we learn more about NYC’s largest food rescue organization: City Harvest. In this episode we talk with Trenia Parham, City Harvest’s Director of Food Access, who explains the organization’s mission as well as the activities they do in order to help communities with limited access to food supply. GPH has teamed up with City Harvest as part of the new Change the Imbalance Initiative which aims to encourage students, faculty, and staff to build upon research and advocacy by engaging directly with our community through volunteering time or donations. Hence forth, our college will be supplementing major events with opportunities to give back, learn, and raise awareness of various public health issues. For the initiative’s premier event GPH, in partnership with City Harvest, will build and distribute snack packs filled with nutritious goodies to children throughout NYC. This event will not only serve to feed those in need but to also raise awareness about the continuous presence of food insecurity in our city.
