Forget ghosts. These are the things that actually scare us. 👻

Temple University’s College of Public Health is proud to be a founding member of the Philadelphia Food as Medicine Coalition, launching today at the inaugural Food First Health Summit at WHYY Studios.

The coalition brings together community organizations, researchers, policymakers, health professionals and farmers to strengthen the connection between nutrition and health and build a more equitable food system.

Our own David Sarwer, director of the Center for Obesity Research and Education, spoke with The Philadelphia Inquirer about the question guiding this work: How can we help ensure everyone in our communities has access to healthy food?

We look forward to advancing that work together.
