Abstrakt: Objective: Develop and gain feedback on a food insecurity toolkit for higher education institutions to provide food insecurity programming on campus that will promote a food-secure campus environment.
Methods: A search of the literature was completed by 2 researchers to develop the toolkit. The toolkit was assessed using an online 27 item open- and close-ended survey. One hundred twenty-six stakeholders from 106 land grant institutions were contacted to provide perceptions of the developed toolkit, including usefulness, barriers to application, and recommendations for improvement.
Results: Thirty stakeholders from 27 institutions responded. Thematic analysis of feedback covered 4 main topics: layout, overall content, initiatives, and application. Eight themes emerged: visual appeal, organization, value, provoking, comprehensive, barriers, collaboration, and efficiency. Corrections and recommendations were provided for each topic.
Conclusions and Implications: The themes derived encompassed the objective of the toolkit. This toolkit serves as a resource that can be utilized by student leaders, clubs or organizations, campus stakeholders, or administrators to begin a food security initiative on campus.
