Listen "Standing in the Gap"
Episode Synopsis
This week on Next Steps 4 Seniors: Conversations on Aging, Wendy is sharing a unique episode to bring the awareness of food insecurity within the senior population to light. Wendy invited Dr. Phil Knight from the Food Bank Council of Michigan to a previously recorded show in September of this year. Wendy shares the first segment of that program here. You will have the opportunity to listen to that show in its entirety by clicking on the link below. Then Wendy was a guest on Dr. Phil Knight’s radio show on WJR AM radio a few weeks ago. They touch on subjects on food insecurity in our senior population, how Next Steps 4 Seniors and Next Steps 4 Seniors Foundation are navigating all the calls they are getting for food requests. Further into the program, Wendy will share what her business and the foundation; a completely separate entity, do to help bridge the gap for this “forgotten middle”. Dr. Knight and Wendy will wrap up the show on resources and how to equip our partners and our community to help out. Grab a cup of tea, sit back, and listen to an enlightening episode about an extreme gap we are seeing in food insecurity within our senior population. Have questions about this episode?
