The community-led workshops are meant to be culturally congruent spaces to provide information and enhance social support. Topics will address reduce maternal-child food insecurity across six themes: good health, responsive caregiving, early nurturing care, safety and security, and adequate nutrition. The community-led workshops will be open to any member of the community and the community identified the need of offering childcare on site to facilitate single parents to attend, and benefit from the resources that will be offered to address different dimensions of food insecurity.
