My journey to UC CalFresh was quite interesting. It started with two employees recruiting volunteers for the MEET program in my health class at Fresno State. I recall contemplating the idea of volunteering since I was going to have school commitments happening around the same time.
Fresno and Madera Counties' UC CalFresh Nutrition Education Program has a long-standing partnership with the Fresno State Dietetic Internship Program. This blog post is part of our Intern Reflections Series.
First harvest is always an exciting time when gardening, but this first harvest proved to be extra special for a group of women and their children at Fresno Rescue Mission's Rescue the Children residential treatment program.
I first heard about UC CalFresh while I was volunteering with a local organization. They had a booth at a community event and I learned so much about what the program does for Fresno County.
