Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food insecurity occurring within low-economic populations in Greater Los Angeles has been shown to lead to detrimental health outcomes. Multiple approaches have been tried over the years, largely by community based organizations seeking to alleviate hunger. These approaches can include vouchers or incentives for healthy foods, nutrition education, diversion of food waste as distribution, and community gardening education. Community organizations are often driven by funding, which can be from private sources or wider general fundraising, but are often linked to grants through Federal, State and County entities. As these grants are often tied to popular policy, this proposed study seeks to comprehensively examine a variety of hunger interventions and survey participants for changed behaviors and signs of effective hunger and nutrition educational outcomes. Researcher will also interview providers for insight into how organizational capacity can efficiently address operation of existing hunger interventions. This study can provide baseline data than can inform policy decisions for Los Angeles County Public Health, California Department of Food and Agriculture, US Department of Food and Agriculture, as well as Kaiser Permanente, Dignity Healthcare, and other regional healthcare providers, all whom are key funders for projects related to SNAP-Education, food, obesity prevention and hunger relief.

This book was released on 2006-06-02 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States is viewed by the world as a country with plenty of food, yet not all households in America are food secure, meaning access at all times to enough food for an active, healthy life. A proportion of the population experiences food insecurity at some time in a given year because of food deprivation and lack of access to food due to economic resource constraints. Still, food insecurity in the United States is not of the same intensity as in some developing countries. Since 1995 the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has annually published statistics on the extent of food insecurity and food insecurity with hunger in U.S. households. These estimates are based on a survey measure developed by the U.S. Food Security Measurement Project, an ongoing collaboration among federal agencies, academic researchers, and private organizations. USDA requested the Committee on National Statistics of the National Academies to convene a panel of experts to undertake a two-year study in two phases to review at this 10-year mark the concepts and methodology for measuring food insecurity and hunger and the uses of the measure. In Phase 2 of the study the panel was to consider in more depth the issues raised in Phase 1 relating to the concepts and methods used to measure food security and make recommendations as appropriate. The Committee on National Statistics appointed a panel of 10 experts to examine the above issues. In order to provide timely guidance to USDA, the panel issued an interim Phase 1 report, Measuring Food Insecurity and Hunger: Phase 1 Report. That report presented the panel's preliminary assessments of the food security concepts and definitions; the appropriateness of identifying hunger as a severe range of food insecurity in such a survey-based measurement method; questions for measuring these concepts; and the appropriateness of a household survey for regularly monitoring food security in the U.S. population. It provided interim guidance for the continued production of the food security estimates. This final report primarily focuses on the Phase 2 charge. The major findings and conclusions based on the panel's review and deliberations are summarized.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation explores two elements of farmworker food insecurity in California, the structural conditions of food insecurity, and the use of immigrant/cross-border agricultural and culinary knowledge as coping strategies. The first component, structural and systemic causes for farmworker food insecurity, investigates how farmworker food insecurity is linked to international trade and immigration policies, as well as the historical exploitation of people of color in California's agricultural sector. Rather than simply chronicle a story of exploited laboring bodies, I expand upon on this narrative, exploring the ways that indigenous Oaxacan farmworkers, who for the most part come from a culture deeply rooted in food and agricultural practices, cope with food insecurity by utilizing their embodied agricultural and nutritional knowledge. I explore the linkages between their place in the food system as both producers and consumers, as they are simultaneously exploited for their labor, and creating coping mechanisms using their culinary and agricultural experience.
