In response to a need for healthy, affordable food, Johns Hopkins Center for American Indian Health and three rural indigenous communities launched the "Feast for the Future," (FFF) to promote access to healthy foods and the transfer of traditional food-based knowledge from farmers/elders to youth. To assess program impact, 43 in-depth interviews were conducted with participating farmers, elders, and Community Advisory Board members. Interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed in Atlas.ti. Common themes from qualitative analyses included: FFF programs support farming/gardening revitalization and cultural connectedness/identity; FFF has supported positive behavior change among interviewees and their families; There is a need to revitalize traditional food systems; Farming/gardening is central to cultural identity; and Responsibility for food choices. The interviews revealed that the community-based program is perceived by key stakeholders as reaffirming cultural identity and promoting healthy eating. As a CAB member shared.
为了满足健康、实惠的食物需求，约翰霍普金斯大学美国印第安人健康中心与三个农村土著社区发起了“未来盛宴”（FFF），以促进获取健康食品和从农民/长者向青年传授传统的基于食物的知识。为了评估该项目的影响，对参与的农民、长者和社区顾问委员会成员进行了 43 次深入访谈。访谈以录音、文字记录和在 Atlas.ti 中进行分析。从定性分析中得出的共同主题包括：FFF 项目支持农业/园艺复兴以及文化联系/身份认同；FFF 支持受访者及其家人的积极行为改变；需要振兴传统的食物系统；农业/园艺是文化认同的核心；以及对食物选择的责任感。访谈显示，社区为基础的项目被主要利益攸关方视为确认文化认同和促进健康饮食。正如一位 CAB 成员分享的那样。
