Last week I facilitated a panel entitled “The Missing Voice: Engaging and Mobilizing Clients in Advocacy” at the National Anti-Hunger Policy Conference. I was happy to be part of this panel, along with Tammy S., a Witnesses to Hunger, and because this topic was being discussed at a national conference.
Last week, Barbie Izquierdo and I were invited to the White House to join a group of national anti-hunger advocates, researchers, public health specialists and foundations to talk about how the new film “A Place at the Table” could help to energize a national movement to end hunger in the United States.
