About This Organization

12523979_207984239591202_4665263817899358109_nHealthy Food America acts on science to drive change in policy and industry practice so that all people can live in places where nutritious food is easy to obtain and exposure to unhealthy products is limited. HFA works to identify the most promising such strategies and supports policymakers and advocates at the federal, state, and local levels to get them adopted.  One initiative they are coordinating with other advocates is working to energize a national movement to roll back added sugars in food and beverages to healthful levels.Though obesity and diabetes epidemics have raged for years, current public policy and industry responses have had limited impact. The evidence that added sugars play a key role in fueling the epidemics continues to grow stronger and calls out for bold new approaches to reverse the trend of adding sugars to the products on our shelves. HFA works to identify the most promising such strategies and supports policymakers and advocates at the federal, state, and local levels to get them adopted.

    ABOUT THE GUIDE

    The James Beard Foundation, Food Tank, and Valrhona, along with a prestigious advisory group of food system experts, developed the “Good Food Org Guide.”

    This definitive Guide highlights nonprofit organizations that are doing exemplary work in the United States in the areas of food and agriculture, nutrition and health, hunger and obesity, and food justice.

    Only nonprofit, scholarly, and municipal initiatives have been selected in order to spotlight efforts that are focused on community building and engagement, advocacy, and service.
