Abstract

This report describes a One Health approach to address food insecurity among two distinct campus populations–college students and patients at a campus-based community health clinic serving Latine adults. The multidisciplinary collaboration includes college staff, faculty, and students, and the founders, both women-centered institutions. Organic community gardens located on and near campus property, pollinated by campus-based beehives, contribute local organic produce to a campus-based food shelf increasing food security and nutritional health for both populations. The One Health system modeled in this report is a step toward building a vibrant community and demonstrates how others can be a part of the larger One Health movement.
