Food Systems Advocacy Community Call

Food Systems Advocacy Community Calls are held monthly, typically in the 4th week of the month. The Food System Community Advocacy Convening provides a platform to share updates on its ongoing advocacy efforts. This call highlights opportunities for community members to engage in public comment and participate in local policy discussions. Attendees will receive updates on County and State budget developments relevant to food systems and related advocacy initiatives. The convening also features advocacy work from key partners, offering opportunities for collaboration and support. Additionally, the program facilitates direct connections between residents, organizations, County agencies, and elected officials to foster meaningful dialogue and action on food system issues. Please check the regularly updated events page for upcoming information on the upcoming Food System Advocacy Community Call.
