Regional College Hunger Conference

Fact: 40% of college students have experienced food insecurity*
To address the best ways to address this issue and to support our college students in the region, the Consortium partnering with the Capital Area Food Bank will once again host regional institutions of higher education at the annual Regional College Hunger Conference this fall.
Local college and university presidents as well as leaders in student affairs, student services, and food assistance programs will serve on panels to discuss best practices at area organizations and Consortium-member institutions. The event features testimonials from college students within our community sharing their experiences overcoming the challenges of food insecurity.
This year, the conference will be held in October 2023 (specific date info coming soon) on the campus of the Catholic University of America.
Please contact events@consortium.org for more information.
