The Resilient Journey

Episode 114 - Food Insecurity, Dignity & Resilience with Sharon Palmer


Listen Later

Did you know that 13% of families in the US struggle with food insecurity? In the UK, the number is 14%. And in Canada, it's 18%. If you don’t have food insecurity then stay tuned, because I’m going to take you somewhere you may have never been. We’re going inside a local food bank.

Hello everyone and welcome to a holiday episode of the Resilient Journey podcast, presented by the Resilience Think Tank. I want to encourage you to consider making a difference this holiday season by donating to your local food bank. This week I’m joined by Executive Director of my town’s Food Bank – Sharon Palmer.

Sharon and I talk about the social isolation associated with food insecurity. We dispel some myths related to food banks, and talk about the importance of treating people with dignity and the best way you can make a healthy donation. Sharon tells me a story that reminds us that everyone matters – and that food banks make a difference.

 

Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey!  We sure do appreciate it!
