Creating sustainable solutions to food insecurity by building and supporting community networks
Tammy Waddell is the program director and curriculum designer for the Nourishing Networks Central/Consortium. Nourishing Networks brings together many organizations and individuals who work tirelessly on food insecurity -- food banks, local governments, school districts, and faith groups, to name a few -- to form community-based networks that create a stronger safety net and an efficient hunger relief system. The networks we have created in the Seattle area, including Bellevue, Issaquah, Kirkland, Northshore, Redmond, and Renton, continue to succeed in addressing food issues.
