Episode 169: The U.S. Fights Hunger
Description
At the September 28, 2022 White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health, a transformational vision and action plan for ending hunger and reducing diet-related disease by 2030 was introduced. Achieving these goals that lie therein requires commitment and action across government, business, civic and nonprofit organizations, academia, faith communities, healthcare, and the public at large. This conference showed that such commitment exists and that leaders across all sectors are ready to take up the challenge.
For its part, Nemours was well represented at the conference by Dr. Kara Walker, Executive Vice President and Nemours Chief Population health officer, and Daniella Gratale, Director of the Office of Child Health Policy. They join us in this podcast episode to talk about the conference and Nemours' ongoing commitments to ending hunger, improving health and reducing health disparities.
