  2. Upon completion, the participant will be able to demonstrate knowledge of some of the environmental and structural factors that can impact housing gaps among young adults.
  3. Upon completion, the participant will be able to describe interventions and approaches to empower young adults who are housing insecure and experience inequities in food access.
