Over the past few semesters I done a lot of archival research, oral interviews, community meetings and presentations on the issues that have greatly affected the residents of Cahokia Heights. Because of this, I am well aware of what I need to be looking for when it comes to picking the most suitable agencies and weaving out the ones that don\u2019t serve much purpose for this upcoming web-site.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/jada-parker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/118\/2026\/02\/IMG_1080-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-520\" style=\"width:425px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/jada-parker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/118\/2026\/02\/IMG_1080-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/jada-parker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/118\/2026\/02\/IMG_1080-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/jada-parker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/118\/2026\/02\/IMG_1080-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/jada-parker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/118\/2026\/02\/IMG_1080-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/jada-parker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/118\/2026\/02\/IMG_1080-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/jada-parker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/118\/2026\/02\/IMG_1080-850x1133.jpeg 850w, https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/jada-parker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/118\/2026\/02\/IMG_1080-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Me and my group partner Lindell went on a field trip to the city of Cahokia where we had the chance to visit on their local grocery stores.

These questions are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1.) How can the water issue affect the residents of Cahokia mentally and physically?<br>2.) What local government agencies best fit the water needs of the Cahokia residents?<br>3.) What are the current gaps\/challenges in accessing healthier food options in Cahokia? What are ways that leaders can provide better options for residents?<br>4.) How do we make what we learned known to the community of Cahokia?<br>5.) How long has this problem existed? How has this situation prolonged over time?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>INTRODUCTION For my part in the Cahokia heights research project, I had to come up with a handful of government funded agencies that I feel as though has the most impactful resources that could help the residents of Cahokia heights that are facing severe water contamination and the risks that come with it.
