Food Tank and Duke University’s World Food Policy Center recently hosted the “Empowering Eaters” Summit in support of the National Strategy on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health. This episode of “Food Talk with Dani Nierenberg” features two conversations from the event focused on policies and programs that nourish eaters and ensure that they can reach their fullest potential.

First, Luis Guardia, President of the Food Research & Action Center (FRAC), sits down with Dani to discuss the barriers to enrolling in nutrition assistance programs; the importance of protecting and expanding SNAP, the country’s first line of defense against hunger; and ongoing efforts to ensure that all children have access to healthy meals in schools. Then, hear a fireside chat between Dani and U.S. Congressmember Valerie Foushee, who represents North Carolina’s 4th Congressional District. They discuss the work of the bipartisan House Hunger Caucus; the value of programs like WIC, which help to nourish mothers, infants, and young children; and the need to vote for policymakers who are passionate about the communities they serve and represent the values we believe in.
