Abstract Currently, food insecurity is a lack of access to enough food for a healthy life that impacts approximately 40 million Americans and 821 million people worldwide. These statistics are expected to rise as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic drastically.

The purpose of this article is to discuss a curricular framework that can be implemented in both nursing and healthcare curricula to offer appropriate training for food insecurity assessment, care, and patient education.
