Innovating Through Cross-Sector Alignment: Addressing Food Insecurity Through Economic Partnerships

View Case Study

This case study — in an effort to highlight innovative multi-sector partnerships between governmental public health, healthcare, and social service organizations, along with the engagement of their communities — highlights the Family Meal Roseville program to help to address food needs with restaurants’ expertise and capacity to feed to families in need in response to unprecedented food insecurity needs as a result of the COVID-19 crisis.

In this Public Health National Center for Innovations series, stories of innovative approaches to address needs unearthed by the COVID-19 pandemic are shared in the hopes that other communities can learn from and possibly replicate those efforts.
