Abstract

This summary is based on 20 face-to-face interviews among individuals selected by local service providers that were representative of clients in Northwest Arkansas that have previously been, currently are, or may be at risk to experience food insecurity. The interviews were held throughout Northwest Arkansas, often in the participant’s home, at restaurants, Genesis Church, or 7 Hills Homeless Center, during June and July 2018. Participants were compensated $100.00 for completing a 60- to 90-minute interview. As with all qualitative research, the following insights should be taken as directional in nature and not as measurable, objective facts. However, observations that are consistent across a small, unbiased sample often extrapolate to a larger population.
