Columbus Metropolitan Club - 10-10-2018 - Children's Hunger Alliance
 
 
No child can learn and grow on an empty stomach. But, more than half a million children in Ohio - 1 out of every 5 - live in "food-insecure" households.

Poor nutrition at an early age is linked to lasting health problems, learning challenges, delayed cognitive development, and an increased risk of obesity.

CMC welcomes Judy Mobley, President & CEO of Children's Hunger Alliance, Joy Bivens, Director of Franklin County Department of Job and Family Services, Devray Kirkland, Director of Diversity and Inclusion at Cardinal Health, Dr. Eric Karolak, Chief Executive Officer of Action for Children, and host Shannon Jones, CEO of Groundwork Ohio, to discuss this pressing need and what is being done to tackle it.
