Become a Hunger Free Navigator

The Hunger Coalition introduces a new opportunity to learn about local food assistance resources and the best ways to connect. We invite people who are interested learning how to navigate to join us in one of two ways:

Community members interested in learning more about food insecurity, available resources and how to best connect are encouraged to participate in upcoming Hunger Free Community Navigator workshops.
Organizations interested in learning how to connect the communities they serve to food assistance resources are encouraged to join us for upcoming Hunger Free Nonprofit Navigator trainings.
