Beyond the Food Pantry is a report on the League's two-year Innovative Solutions for Hunger Relief and Student Success project, which sought to help community colleges reduce food insecurity for students and their families in sustainable ways that foster student retention, persistence, and success. The League worked with two community colleges—Northeast Texas Community College and West Kentucky Community and Technical College—serving rural, economically distressed areas to develop effective, innovative models for hunger relief that can be adopted or adapted by community colleges and other institutions.
