Today was helpful in understanding a community needs assessment--which is basically a set of steps related to evaluating the health of a given population. Today was also helpful in strengthening my knowledge of food insecurity. The video clips we watched proved to be very insightful--especially the one about all the people in Southeastern Ohio standing in line for food.
In the past I have volunteered for a similar outreach for my church. The program I helped with was associated with the Freestore Foodbank and provided nutritious food items for those individuals/families that qualified. I always knew that there were people in my home town that needed assistance; but I didn't realize that there were so many until I volunteered.
Tha's really cool that you have helped volunteered for situations like this. It will give you a greater appreciation for this class and what other families go through.
