Collective Power
Our primary goal is to create a space where our community can come together, share voice and power, and work together to improve our food system.
Who is our community? Residents, schools, churches, pantries, community agencies, local businesses, urban growers, and community leaders.
How do we engage community?
Community Advisory Board: Residents who guided and inform priorities and goals. This past year, the group created new expectations and goals for the advisory board and created and implemented an evaluation for the coalition and leadership.
Community Engagement: (based on DDPHE’s Engagement Spectrum)
We utilize flyers, surveying, focus groups, listening sessions, co-design workshops, Community Advisory Board, participatory budget, and community driven planning.
Coalition Meetings
Our Coalition continues to meet every 2 weeks.
