Travel to Food: Transportation Barriers for the Food Insecure in Tampa Bay
| 项目名称： | Travel to Food: Transportation Barriers for the Food Insecure in Tampa Bay |
| 摘要： | In partnership with the Tampa Bay Network to End Hunger (TBNTEH), this proposed research will inform practical transportation solutions aimed at improved food access in the Tampa Bay (Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco Counties). The food pantry/bank sites that are part of TBNTEH will help gather survey data from their client population. The survey will be a modified version of that used by the Three Square Food Bank in Los Vegas, Nevada. That particular study resulted in major policy changes that increased food access for those in need. The proposed survey for this effort will include even more transportation focused questions to further gain insight into how clients currently access emergency food sites. This proposed research supports NITC�s theme of safe, healthy and sustainable transportation choices to foster livable communities in the following ways: (1) identifying gaps in the transportation system for vulnerable communities' (2) leading to focused solutions to improve access to healthy food; (3) leading to added sustainable transportation options; and (4) access to food is an essential precursor to livability. |
