Changing the narrative around nutrition security through food literacy, advocacy, and community engagement.

THE STATISTICS ARE CLEAR....

11.3% US Adults are Diabetic 

38% of US Adults are Prediabetic

50% US Adults are Hypertensive

67% Unaware Hypertensive until first Heart Attack

60% of Americans have at least one chronic disease

Low-income households have a 74% relative increase in diabetes prevalence than high income earners.

Many Americans don't know they are at risk until it is too late. I want to create a world that we don't have to rehabilitate this next generation from.

I founded the Healthy Food Movement to focus on nutrition security and food literacy in underserved communities, a clear gap in our food system. My current body of work is focused on the intersections of food as a medical intervention, sustainable agriculture, and health policy. I have consulted and participated in a variety of social determinants of health (SDoH) projects across the United States, including the Caribbean.

​

My desire is to see this current generation break the cycle of diet related diseases and begin to work together to create a social safety net that works for all. I envision a movement that is inclusive of and works on behalf of our next generation, so they won't have to be rehabilitated from what we consider dietary norms today. Imagine what we could achieve if we could shift from feeding America to nourishing America.

I am passionate about the Healthy Food Movement because diet-related diseases have claimed the lives of too many of my family members. It's time to take a stand and educate our communities.

The MCW Office of Community Engagement thoughtfully considers who to invite as a conference keynote for our annual conference. As we planned for the 2024 MCW Community Engagement Spring Conference: Showcasing Community Engagement In All Spaces, Rayna Andrews’ name emerged at the top of our list. We were so pleased that Ms. Andrews accepted our invitation to serve as a keynote speaker and highly recommend her as she is knowledgeable, engaging, and incredibly well-prepared.

 

Her keynote address, “Feeding Progress: The Crucial Link Between Nutrition Security, Race, and Public Health,” laid the groundwork for key issues and important concepts threaded throughout the day’s content. We appreciate that Ms. Andrews engaged with us in dialogue leading up to the event to learn and provide input. The Office of Community Engagement is so thankful to Ms. Andrews for delivering a compelling and important keynote and highly recommends her for future speaking engagements.
