요약In 2023, 13.5 percent of U.S. households experienced food insecurity. There are notable disparities in who faces food insecurity across socio-demographic groups and region. The recognition of intersecting barriers that exacerbate food insecurity in rural areas has prompted significant federal investments to bolster local food systems and the creation of new initiatives to strengthen rural infrastructure, connect communities with federal resources, and support rural health and well-being.The concept of community food security (CFS) recognizes a broader set of political, social, environmental, and economic factors than traditional conceptualizations of food security and may be a promising framework for informing rural health policy. A core element of the CFS framework is community self-reliance. At present, community self-reliance is considered synonymous with physical food infrastructure; however, extant scholarship demonstrates that the presence of physical food infrastructure is not sufficient, and social factors, including social relationships and networks, are promising mechanisms for supporting food security in rural areas.This dissertation employs a pragmatic research paradigm and the principles of community-engaged research to interrogate CFS in rural communities. I achieve this via three empirical studies, each with a distinct unit of analysis: individual (Chapter 2), group (Chapter 3), and organizational (Chapter 4). Leveraging in-depth, semi-structured interviews, Chapter 2 explores how residents of a rural, high food insecurity region characterize their experiences with food insecurity, resulting in a set of themes that both converge with, and diverge from, the constructs underpinning current food security measurement. For Chapter 3, I conducted focus groups to explore how residents in southeast Ohio conceptualize CFS and how the social and physical components of the local food system, including group-identified community assets, work in concert to influence healthy food access. Finally, in Chapter 4, I employ an exploratory, qualitative case study, including data collected via in-depth, semi-structured interviews with nonprofit representatives, field observations, and document analysis, to investigate the role of nonprofit collaboration in the social infrastructure of a rural food system. I rely on Emerson et al.'s framework for collaborative governance regimes (CGR) to conceptualize a triadic alliance of three nonprofit organizations working in a formalized collaborative structure as a self-initiated CGR. I identify the system context and collaboration dynamics that facilitate and constrain collaborative action in the local food system. I also explore how the CGR's collaborative actions support community self-reliance.Elevating the perspectives of rural residents and nonprofit organizations may inform programmatic leaders and policymakers of the specific and actionable challenges and assets relevant to populations disproportionately impacted by food insecurity. This is particularly salient given the first pillar of the White House's (2022) National Strategy to improve food access and affordability across the U.S., including in rural communities, and historic federal investments to bolster local food systems through research and community-engaged interventions.
