Food Security Meeting in Calgary

Description

A large grant has come through for the United Way in Calgary; this will be used to develop a program to help improve local food security. The city has brought in a researcher to develop a focus group to find out different issues of local food security and identify proper plans of action. This is the first focus group meeting held at town hall, in which people of different socio-economic and cultural backgrounds are meeting. The city's mayor has also opted to sit in on the meeting as a liaison between the local government and the provincial and federal governments for further funding requests.
