Mary Pimmel, Refugee Health Programs intern, is completing a one year internship with Heartland Alliance for Human Rights and Human Needs while pursuing a Masters in Social Justice from Loyola University of Chicago. Her dual interests in refugee populations and food justice have combined in her project researching refugee food insecurity with the Bhutanese refugee community. Mary's passion for social justice began during her studies at Rockhurst University and continued during her time in the Jesuit Volunteer Corps as a refugee youth worker in Syracuse, New York. Mary's experiences here awakened her to the needs and rights of refugee communities and contribute to her current pursuit of just food policy. In May, Mary will be beginning work with the United Nation�s World Tourism Organization�s project to end Sex Tourism.
