Event Details
Food Deserts are defined as geographic areas where
residents’ access to affordable, healthy food options
(especially fresh fruits and vegetables) is not available. It
is especially difficult for low-income and minority families
when supermarkets and fresh markets are nonexistent. Food
deserts are a leading factor resulting in greater incidences
of malnutrition and obesity as well as other health-related
risks in adults and children. In these communities we also
see students with poor attention spans and poor school
attendance, low employment opportunities, cycles of
violence, and other social issues.
Please join us as we learn from local innovators as to what
they are doing in Dallas communities to tackle societal
problems through “food” and how each of us can address
options to make changes
Cost: $36 (program, lunch, valet parking. Valet parking in the garage next to the restaurant is limited to the first 50 cars--please plan to carpool.) Chair: Randi Smerud Co-Vice Presidents of Public Affairs: Jackie Waldman & Hadassah Yuster Seating is limited. RSVP by February 7th. Please register and select your lunch choice at 214-368-4405
