| Healthy Garden, Healthy You | NNLM Discovery Podcast (S1/E2): When is a vegetable more than just a vegetable? When the act of growing one helps combat stress and is a commitment to environmental health. On this episode of the NNLM Discovery podcast, Region One outreach librarian April Wright shares her story with host Yamila El-Khayat about how she helped Dr. Rachel Goldstein at the University of Maryland’s School of Public Health use an NNLM Health Information Outreach Award to expand the reach of her Healthy Garden, Healthy Youth project. This project helps address two of the most significant public health challenges facing our nation: mental health challenges and food insecurity. Dr. Goldstein’s team worked with underserved communities in Maryland with limited access to fresh food to understand the mental health, physical health, and cost benefits of growing their own food. | Region 1 |

The Michigan Mental Health Training Kit was created to address this gap.

| Mindful Eating for the Beloved Community: A Story from Region 2 | NNLM Discovery Podcast (S2/E1): Imagine living in a tropical paradise, but you can’t afford fresh produce. Imagine importing 97% of your food and being cut off for weeks due to a hurricane. These are real-life food insecurity issues faced by many Americans in the Caribbean. On this episode of the NNLM Discovery podcast, we return to the U.S. Virgin Islands where Region 2 Regional Advisory Board member, Chef Alex Askew, tells us how his “Mindful Eating for the Beloved Community” program examines inequities in our food system and how to address them. Rooted in Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's global vision in which all people can share in the wealth of the earth, this NNLM-funded initiative is rebuilding our food system in a way that works for everyone, especially the most vulnerable. |
