Ep. 20: Managing Food Allergies When You Are Food Insecure with Emily Brown

Inspired by experience and an unwavering determination, Emily Brown, Founder and CEO of the Food Equality Initiative, explains how food allergies impact food insecure families. In 2014, the only food available to her family during a visit to a pantry was a mere two potatoes and one jar of salsa. Join us as we learn how to address this serious national issue.
