Using Shared Use to Improve Food Environments Webinar

When: Friday, October 23, 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM

Audience: Staff from Local Health Departments (LHD), Teachers, Parents, Community Members, Farmers, Local Governmental Units (LGU), and Community-Based Organizations

Description: DASH-NY is excited to launch the New York Shared Use Agreement Policy Implementation Guide with a shared use webinar! The guide is an information resource for community members, local stakeholders, such as parks and school officials, parents, teachers, and public health advocates interested in improving opportunities for healthy living by implementing shared use agreements across New York State. 

Shared use can be used to change the ways we eat by impacting food systems and environments. That’s why we decided to launch our guide in conjunction with Food Day! Food Day is an annual event. Food activists around the country participate by hosting lectures, festivals, school activities and more, to promote healthy food environments.

Webinar participants will hear three case studies on how shared-use can be used to impact food systems, and will learn about online resources included in the toolkit.

Moderator: Rebecca Abraham, New York Academy of Medicine

Register Here by October 21

The presentation slides will be available after the webinar.
