Welcome

As summer heats up, it offers many opportunities to explore the intersections of food, community, and public health. From farmers' markets to local gatherings, food offers a unique perspective to understanding social determinants of health, access, and community care. Read below for events and resources focusing on the intersection of food and community health.

This month brings two valuable and required learning opportunities for your service. Lia Randazzo will be hosting the July Monthly Learning Network on the 10 Pillars of Public Health. Karlene Kuhn will be hosting the Professional Development Track with practical advice for making the most of your Segal Education Award after service. These trainings provide a valuable opportunity for you to connect with your VISTA network, explore broad public health themes, and start planning for your post-service steps.

Remember, your VISTA Leads are here to help - reach out anytime you need support.
