Local health authorities are working to improve access to food in Shawnee County. Officials are running a “food system analysis.” This report is going to help health workers decide what needs to change to help those who are most vulnerable. The first study performed by the health department confirmed that there are food deserts in certain areas around Shawnee county. Those are areas with limited access to fresh, affordable food. The analysis will show what has changed, but also identify additional challenges caused by the pandemic.
