Summary

This study is testing whether giving monthly food boxes with traditional foods like moose or salmon to food-insecure households in Alaska can improve food security, reduce stress, and increase dietary diversity. 45 adults from the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta will receive food boxes for 3 months and complete questionnaires. The goal is to see if this kind of support makes a real difference.
