Food Access Survey for Residents of Youngstown

Tuesday, July 11, 2017

YNDC is partnering with Eastgate Regional Council of Governments and Northeast Ohio Medical University to survey residents of Youngstown about food access in the city.

Food access has been identified as a barrier to health in Youngstown and the data collected by the survey will be used to inform the creation of a Food Access Action Plan to address health disparities related to Youngstown's food environment. The survey consists of basic questions to assess shopper's preferred stores, the distance they travel to the store, and the accessibility of fresh fruits and vegetables.
