REGISTER HERE   Access to healthy and nutritious food is crucial to optimal health and well-being. In 2022, food insecurity impacted 13.5% of the population in the United States. Food insecurity – defined by the United States Department of Agriculture as the lack of access, at times, to enough food for an active, healthy life – is associated with a wide range of adverse physical and mental health outcomes. Ensuring food security is a critical element of comprehensive health care. Food is Medicine (FIM) programming including medically tailored meals, groceries, and food packages, and producing prescription programs are effective interventions to prevent and treat diet-related chronic conditions, improve food security, and promote health equity/social drivers of health.

Partnering with donors, community and stakeholders is essential in addressing food security. Economic uncertainties with social drivers of health impact U.S. citizens daily.
