S7, Ep 7 - Food Access & the Campus Food Exchange

Food insecurity and historic food-related inequity is a topic at William & Mary that does not necessarily get talked about enough, as it is something that many students have never had to experience themselves. The Campus Food Exchange is a confidential program that provides access to nonperishable food, household products, and personal hygiene products to students, faculty, and staff. Campus Minister with the Wesley Campus Ministry Max Blalock joins us today to talk about what the Campus Food Exchange does, how food insecurity is a real historic (and often ignored) issue in the City of Williamsburg, and what some misconceptions are about the Wesley House.
