Underserved Communities

Underserved communities have the highest need for built environment interventions because they are characterized by limited financial resources and poor infrastructure. There is a lack of ready access to healthy foods (i.e., fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean protein).  Families in poorer communities often live in food deserts where supermarkets and grocery stores are scarce or charge higher prices for healthy foods than processed foods.
