Come to the Table:
A Rare Opportunity to Impact Food Security for Older Adults
1 out of 14 older adults in CT is food insecure - and that number is likely to rise
Food security refers to the availability of food and one's access to it. Food security exists when people at all times have physical and economic access to adequate amounts of nutritious, safe, and culturally appropriate food to maintain ahealthy and active life.
Hear from experts, learn from older adults, and participate in a dynamic change movement to increase awareness, access and advocacy.
