Food insecurity has increasingly been recognized as a common problem amongst residents of Crawford County.

Food insecurity has increasingly been recognized as a common problem amongst residents of Crawford County. The Crawford County Food Alliance aims to assist those in need of food by collecting and providing information on qualified food banks, pantries, and trucks. However, this information must be sufficiently accessible to as many residents as possible to get the proper help they may need. Ryan’s project built on previous projects by creating a website that includes these previous projects – a food map, calendar, and other necessary food resources – all in one central location that anyone with internet access can view.

Outcome

Created and launched CCFA website linking data/outcomes from past food resource projects.
