A rapid evidence assessment of 20 academic papers that record health or social outcomes of healthcare-community food aid partnerships. Collaborative interventions between these two sectors demonstrate increased fruit and vegetable consumption, improved dietary quality, supported disease management, reduced emergency visits, enhanced mental health, and reduced food insecurity. Evidence also demonstrates increased satisfaction and reduced stigma with aid received in healthcare settings.This document was produced as an assignment for the FPM001 Food and Public Policy module undertaken at the Centre for Food Policy, City St Georges, University of London.

本研究针对20篇记录医疗-社区粮食援助合作项目健康与社会效应的学术论文开展快速证据评估（rapid evidence assessment）。医疗与社区两部门的协同干预措施可带来多项积极效益：提升果蔬摄入量、优化膳食质量、助力疾病管理、减少急诊就诊人次、改善心理健康状况，同时降低粮食不安全水平。相关证据还显示，在医疗场景中获取援助的受众满意度有所提升，且其所面临的污名化程度有所降低。
