Hunger and Homelessness in College
Infographic DOWNLOAD
While learning about Higher Education in the U.S., I created an infographic on hunger and homelessness among college students. This is a wide-spread issue across the country's college population and it finally starts to get some traction and attention. My inspiration and major source of information for this project was Dr. Sara Goldrick-Rab and her HOPE Center. Learn more about the center and their work here.
