以一场有力而深刻的对话拉开 Food ACCESS 演讲系列的序幕
3 月 28, 2025
Last Tuesday, we hosted the inaugural event of the Food ACCESS Speaker Series, Exploring the Underlying Causes of Hunger.
In this virtual event, we discussed the cascading challenges for people experiencing food insecurity and how hunger and poverty have been perpetuated. We unearthed some of the systemic barriers that prevent food security and economic mobility and the good work that’s being done to address these issues.
The first hour of the event was a panel discussion moderated by Regi Young, the Executive Director of the Alameda County Community Food Bank, followed by a 15-minute Q&A hosted by CAFB’s Lauren Lathan Reid and joined by PG&E’s Community Relations Principal Judy de Freitas.
Eric McDonnell, Principal at Peacock Partnerships
Gloria Medina, Executive Director of Strategic Concepts in Organizing & Policy Education (SCOPE)
Teri Olle, Director of Economic Security Project
The California Association of Food Banks launched the 食品访问演讲者系列, presented by PG&E, as a forum for thought-provoking conversation and dynamic ideas. This biennial series of quarterly events builds on the biennial Food ACCESS conference, bringing insight and information to your screen. The series will delve into the root causes of hunger, grapple with ways to increase equitable access to food, and discuss actionable steps towards achieving a hunger-free California.
We hope to see you at the next event, The State of Hunger in California, on June 3.
