Hunger Vital Sign Epilogue: Ongoing Research
Tuesday, 20 December, 2022

Dr. Ana Poblacion and Richard Sheward discuss recent research related to measuring food insecurity, and how ongoing research supports better strategies to reduce food insecurity & its associated health risks. This episode features development & validation of a scale measuring changing levels of food security in households with young children. The work was funded with a small USDA research grant and presented as part of marking 25 years of household food security measurement. Research presentations from all projects supported as part of this 25th anniversary are found at: https://sites.tufts.edu/foodsec25/ For the full Hunger Vital Sign explainer series, visit our website: https://www.vtfoodinhealth.net/hunger-vital-sign-toolkit To learn more about the Hunger Vital Sign National Community of Practice, visit the Children's HealthWatch HVS special projects page: https://childrenshealthwatch.org/public-policy/hunger-vital-sign/
