PURPOSE OF REVIEW
This article describes the impacts of food insecurity (FI) on child health, outlines clinical and public policy interventions to mitigate FI in children, and defines new paradigms in population health to ameliorate the harmful effects of FI in children.
RECENT FINDINGS
Rates of FI among children have dramatically increased with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, with particular adverse impact on low-income children. Population health innovations in screening, referral, and social service integration offer new opportunities to address FI.
SUMMARY
Despite advances in clinical practice and public policy, FI remains a persistent issue for many US children. Clinicians and policymakers have opportunities to leverage clinical and community-based integration to improve service delivery opportunities to ameliorate childhood hunger and racial and socioeconomic inequity in the United States.
目的综述
本文描述了食物不安全（FI）对儿童健康的影响，概述了减轻儿童 FI 的临床和公共政策干预措施，并定义了改善儿童 FI 有害影响的人口健康新范式。
最近的发现
随着 COVID-19 大流行的爆发，儿童中的 FI 率急剧上升，对低收入儿童的影响尤其不利。筛查、转介和社会服务整合方面的人口健康创新为解决 FI 提供了新的机会。
总结
尽管在临床实践和公共政策方面取得了进展，但 FI 仍然是许多美国儿童面临的一个持续问题。临床医生和政策制定者有机会利用临床和基于社区的整合来改善服务提供机会，以减轻美国的儿童饥饿和种族及社会经济不平等问题。
