    Jefferson County Public Health and Five Points Geoplanning provided GIS and mapping support for the Golden Community Food Assessment, working with Sophie Oppenheimer, the City of Golden, and Hunger Free Golden. 

    Demographic and location data was collected and mapped to visualize the following in and around Golden: at-risk (high-needs) areas, concentrations of SNAP (also known as food stamps) recipients, poverty, median household income, unemployment, local free/reduced price food options, conventional food retailers, public transportation routes, survey locations, and respondent home areas.

    On February 20, 2018, the Hunger Free Golden Community Collaborative hosted a community conversation to encourage engaged community members to work together and come up with ideas and potential solutions to reduce barriers to food which would ultimately influence future priorities of the Hunger Free Golden Community Collaborative.

    Along with sharing experiences around access to healthy food, an important question was asked of event participants:

    "How can we increase access to a sufficient amount of healthy and fresh food for all members of our community?"
