The Central Iowa Food Security Plan Navigation Pilot Program was developed out of community wide convening and release of the Central Iowa Food Security Plan. The goal of this program is to enhance food security by connecting individuals and families to resources and services through a Community Navigator representative at various locations where food is provided to community members in need. The program will also collect data to analyze and identify ways to improve the services provided to the community members in Central Iowa. The program is seeking a community navigator position to serve at 2 host site organizations, Johnston Partnership and Urbandale Food Pantry.
