Abstract
Food insecurity has been identified as potentially the most impactful social determinant of health. More than 2 billion people are without food or unable to eat a healthy balanced diet worldwide according to the United Nations. Food insecurity has been noted to be associated with multiple chronic health conditions that nurses see each day in practice, however, a knowledge gap exists about the nurses' role in food insecurity.

Learning Outcomes:
- Identify what food insecurity is and how it impacts national and global healthcare
