Food Justice and Basic Needs Feels Refreshed for Spring Quarter

By: Alicia Kwan, Diana Ngyuen, Maninder Kaur, Jasmine Summers- Evans, Rosemary Wallace, Melinda McMonigle, and Fiona Zhang.

These past two weeks have been a great start to the quarter for Food Justice and Basic Needs team. First, we met with our stakeholder, Chidera. We talked about our expectations and plans for this quarter, and made sure that we are all happy with the plans. Next, we went on a field trip to Santa Barbara, where we roasted marshmallows and talked about the environment. We explored the beach and breathed in fresh air, and came back ready for the quarter! Lastly, we divided up our group to work on surveys and the new Basic Needs website. We believe this division will make us work more efficiently in our respective tasks. In addition, we each chose which sub team to work with based on our individual interests. Thus, our passion and creativity will spill into our work!

We look forward to this quarter!
