Mission: To connect people to food resources to meet existing needs and drive policy, systems and social change to end hunger.
Vision: Every Coloradan has equitable access to nutritious, culturally relevant food. That vision can only be realized by following the lead of community members directly impacted by hunger, building a community-centered food system, and overturning the structural racism in our institutions and government policies that result in Black, Indigenous, Latinx, immigrant and other communities of color being disproportionately impacted by hunger and poverty.
To achieve our long-term vision, our approach:
- centers community members and local communities directly impacted by hunger;
- pursues systems and policy changes that strengthen SNAP, school meals and other government nutrition programs while also building local food systems;
- ensures adequate income for all and;
- eliminates racist barriers that hinder food access for immigrants and other communities of color.
