Abstract

Dr. Feingold's team is using the supplementary funding to study how COVID-19 is impacting food access in New York's Capital Region, with specific attention on understanding how the fresh produce recovery and redistribution arm of the Capital Region food system is absorbing the shock. The team anticipates that their findings will reveal the benefits and tradeoffs associated with policy and program interventions in response to COVID-19.
