Food & Nutrition Access

Closing the gap between nutrition guidance and a nourishing plate.

  • Cooking, preparation, and preservation education
  • Connection to PiP for personalized planning
  • Links to community food-access resources and future partnerships

Why it matters

Knowing what to eat is only half the equation. This program addresses the real-world gap between receiving nutrition guidance and being able to obtain, prepare, and routinely use nutritious food.
