Abstract
This chapter examines the need to modify, fortify, and expand student services to support food-insecure students due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the chapter, the author surveys the existing scholarship on the importance of student services to reduce barriers to academic success for food-insecure college students. Additionally, this chapter will discuss the impact of COVID-19 on hunger and poverty and the impact on college students. Third, the researcher will survey the various approaches taken by colleges to address changes to the delivery of services due to reduced limited access, a reduction in resources, and safety protocols. Lastly, the researcher will discuss new approaches to support food insecure students during a global pandemic. This chapter concludes that colleges must refine their approaches to addressing students' needs to ensure they achieve their academic goals.
