Inaugural Food Security Scholars cohort announced

The Staley School of Leadership Studies proudly introduces the inaugural cohort of Food Security Scholars (FSS), a program for Kansas State University students who are interested in understanding food security systems and challenging the way we think about food insecurity, community need and how we provide food.

The FSS mission is ‘Empowering scholars by fostering curiosity and community to make progress toward a food secure world.’ Members of the group will have opportunities to gain firsthand experience working with community partners and leaders around the topic of food security.
