Beyond the Pantry: Rethinking Food Security in Newcomer Populations

This archived Switchboard webinar (hosted September 2, 2026) explores how food insecurity affects newcomers' health, family stability, and success at school and work. Presenters from Switchboard and the International Rescue Committee share culturally responsive, trauma-informed strategies, including financial assistance programs, meal services, community gardens, and community partnerships. The session does not cover eligibility barriers to food assistance. Slides and a transcript are available.
