Society for Nutrition Education and Behavior
Technology
This session focuses on the Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (CFAP), also known as the Farmers to Families Food Box Program, funded under the CARES Act. Given pandemic-related unemployment and disruptions in the food supply chain, the Food Box Program aims to provide farmers with a new market for their product no longer needed by restaurants and schools; fresh-food aggregators the ability to remain financially solvent; and food insecure consumers mainly fresh foods. It appears, however, that the program may not reach the most vulnerable farmers and regional aggregators, and has problems going ‘the last mile’ to or meeting the needs of at-risk consumers. The perspectives of two participating organizations will highlight the role of nutrition education as well as overall challenges and opportunities with the Food Box Program. Policy implications and recommendations for future programs will be discussed. Webinar organized by the Sustainable Food Systems Division.
