The Chicago Chapter of Blessings in a Backpack hosted Food for Thought, a video seminar series that explores the negative of hunger and food insecurity on children and the positive impact that Blessings has on our students. This episode features Amy Overmyer, LCPC, and Patti Van Winkle, Principal of Virginia Lake School in Palatine. Ms. Overmyer shares the physical and mental challenges presented when young people are hungry or anxious about where their next meal is coming from. Ms. Van Winkle relates the life-changing impact on students, teachers, and the entire Virginia Lake Community. For supporters of Blessings, this 30-minute episode is a must-watch.
