Hunger: A Faith and Justice Response

Hunger: A Faith and Justice Response is an 8-session, prayerful process that includes study, rich dia-logue, and an immersion experience. This program inspires and equips participants to take concrete action to end hunger and food insecurity.

The course may challenge your thinking about food insecurity, its causes, its impact, and viable steps to eliminate it. The class explores issues such as food deserts, underemployment and food insecurity, food waste, public policy around farming, and COVID-19’s impact on hunger. Our hope is that the program will guide participants in discerning how they are called to action in addressing this issue.
