Answer to Question 1

Food security refers to the ability to obtain adequate food to maintain an active, healthy lifestyle. In 2012, 49 million Americans were unable to purchase or acquire enough food to sustain their families Most susceptible to food insecurity are single-parent households in rural or large cities, Black and Hispanic households, and families with incomes below the federal poverty line. Useful approaches and resources for practitioners: obtain thorough family and medical histories to assess risk and identify recent changes in health and/or mental status, health care access and screenings, insurance or employment status; identify at-risk households by utilizing the USDA Food Security Survey Module, or connect food-insecure families with food pantries and existing social services at the local, state, and federal levels.
