Ever wonder why the food pantry can’t seem to keep up with the needs of our community? That’s because truly ending hunger requires changing the systems that cause it. The fact is, changing those systems and ending hunger can happen in our time, when we help our government play its part. That’s where you come in. As an advocate to end hunger, you can help your elected officials understand and support the governmental policies and priorities that help end hunger. In this half-day training led by Dave Miner, experienced local hunger advocate and grassroots organizer, you’ll learn the key skills and best practices that make a lasting difference.
