Our team visited five communities across South Dakota in September to participate in Community Voices events alongside fellow SDHNC members. This series brought communities together to discuss findings from the South Dakota Food Landscape Assessment. We also gained valuable insight as South Dakotans shared their local perspectives, helping us better understand the unique needs of communities across the state and identify opportunities to build a healthier South Dakota.

Thank you to all who attended and participated in the Community Voices series.
