Community Health & Research

The Office of Community Health and Research comprises of a robust team of multidisciplinary faculty and research staff from a variety of backgrounds, including nutrition, early childcare, academics, charitable food systems, physical education, and more. In just over five years, the Office has produced more than 100 scientific articles surrounding four primary focus areas: Community Programs, Health Research, Healthy Food Systems, and Maternal Child Health.
