Fresh Shelves, Healthy Pantries
Overview
To date, no study has tested multiple strategies in food pantries of different sizes to help pantry clients access and select healthy foods. We received the Community Scholars Grant from the Lerner Center of Public Health Promotion to collaborate with the Maryland Food Bank on a feasibility trial. We will develop and test multiple environmental, educational, and policy interventions in small, medium and large food pantries to improve access and uptake of healthful foods by low-income families in Baltimore City.
