This introductory interdisciplinary course teaches students about the many facets of food security in the United States, including historical impacts of race and social class on food security; food justice and food accessibility; the roles of non-profit organizations, government agencies, and disciplinary experts in developing food security efforts; and approaches to developing programs and policies, federal to local, to address the problem. In addition, service-learning experiences in students own communities allow them to gain knowledge about the specific agencies approaches to community food security, critically reflecting upon the experience and creating their own community food security action plan.
