Abstract
Purpose: To describe a partnership between a public university and a regional foodbank aimed to promote health in food insecure communities, and to support nursing students' learning experiences in community health.
Design: A single setting case study.
Methods: A comprehensive health needs assessment conducted through a windshield survey and key informant interviews was used to identify the community's priorities.
Findings: Nursing interventions were tailored to the community's needs by creating healthy recipes and providing education on food safety, lower back injury prevention, and chronic disease prevention and 15 management.
Conclusion: During pandemics, nursing program partnerships with food banks could play pivotal roles in community health promotion.
Clinical evidence: Food banks can serve as clinical platforms for nursing education and community wellness activities.

This innovative publication focuses on health care issues relevant to all aspects of community practice -- home health care, visiting nursing services, clinics, hospices, education, and public health administration.

The journal is a forum for community health professionals to share their experience and expertise with others in the field.
