Food Insecurity

Food insecurity refers to the limited or uncertain availability of safe and nutritionally adequate foods; or limited or uncertain ability to obtain such food in a socially acceptable manner. In its most extreme form, known as hunger, individuals can experience physiological conditions such as uneasiness and pain.

Student Basic Needs offers food support through supplemental assistance including the Trojan Food Pantry and the Swipe Out Hunger program.  Our goal is to guarantee that every student is food secure, meaning students have access to nutritious options without limitations.
