Outreach team members have produced several research briefs that serve to distill peer-reviewed journal articles authored by EFSNE team members into 2-4 page documents intended for a general audience. The briefs describe the issue(s) addressed by a particular research paper, outline the study’s objectives, methods, and findings, and discuss the implications and applications of the findings. Ten titles are currently available, and team members plan to release additional briefs in the coming months. If you'd like to be notified when new briefs are posted, email Kristen Devlin (krd111@psu.edu) to be added to the mailing list.

Now, in an initial collection of three papers published in the Journal of Agriculture, Food Systems, and Community Development, team members have summarized some of their findings.
