Achakzai, Ariana2020-09-012020-09-012020-05-01https://hdl.handle.net/2097/40854Flint Hills Wellness Coalition (FHWC) formed in April 2011. Their main objectives are to develop community norms supporting healthy behaviors and environments for the citizens of Manhattan and Riley County. Since I joined Food and Farm Council (FFC) of the FHWC as an intern, I was involved in different activities. However, the three big programs I participated were creating community action teams (CAT), helping in organizing Ogden Community Free Meals once a month, and Kitchen Restore. The main objective of this applied practice experience was to apply what I have learned in classes into practice within the community. All the three main programs I was part of are continuing and are great initiatives for the Manhattan community. Community action teams (CAT’s) are topical groups of more than fifty partners divided into three groups including nutrition education, food insecurity, and waste. The Ogden Community Free Meal is organized once in a month to serve the food insecure community members of Ogden. The Kitchen Restore program is designed to create kitchen cooking kits for newly arrived and in need families lacking kitchen gear and equipment. In this report, I will provide more details about the three above mentioned programs.en-USThis Item is protected by copyright and/or related rights.
