Food and Nutrition Experts and Policy Leaders Applaud Senate Leaders’ Focus on “Food as Medicine”
National Strategy Emphasizes Critical Importance of “Food as Medicine” Efforts
Our coalition plans to hold a series of convenings and dialogues across the country for representatives from multiple sectors, as well as community organizations and individuals, to discuss policy actions to achieve the Conference goals.
We are collecting reports, white papers, briefs, and articles that contain policy recommendations for ending hunger, improving nutrition, and reducing diet-related chronic diseases. The focus is on domestic (U.S) policy recommendations that have been published in the past 10 years. These resources will be made available to our Task Force and may inform its final report of policy recommendations which will be submitted to the White House.
