About this Opportunity

This is an AmeriCorps/Washington Service Corps national service position. It is contingent on funding and open until filled. The mission of the Clark County Food Bank is to "alleviate hunger and its root causes." The Food+ Program recognizes that ending hunger requires more than just distributing food. Food insecurity is deeply connected to other challenges. Unstable housing, unemployment, healthcare access, and a lack of education or financial tools all play a part. Food+ programs work alongside our food distribution efforts to address these root causes. We offer services in: Nutrition Education, Financial Empowerment, Resource Navigation, and Workforce Development. Food+ advances our vision of a healthier, more self-sufficient community. The member will teach people how to cook, shop, grow, and prepare healthy meals on a budget. This position requires flexibility to serve after 5 pm and on occasional weekends. We will conduct rolling review of applications and interviews until position is filled. Monthly stipend amount: $3,157.
