Delivering Health

The Healthy Food Systems team is working to reduce Type 2 diabetes among food insecure families across Arkansas by distributing Type 2 diabetes food boxes to participants. In addition to providing food, the boxes will contain educational materials designed to help adults manage their Type 2 diabetes. Additionally, staff will develop a training program for medical students that will help them recognize food insecurity-related issues and chronic diseases.
