NH Food Access Coalition

The New Hampshire Food Access Coalition (NHFAC), a program of NH Hunger Solutions, was started in in the summer of 2020 through a partnership between the NH Food Alliance and NH Public Health Association, generously funding by the NH Children’s Health Foundation to address hunger policy in NH.

The coalition is a cross-sectoral group of stakeholders across the food system, government, non-profit, public health and healthcare that meets monthly to identify and address issues of food access in New Hampshire.

What we envision

A diverse, well-connected coalition that uses its collective voice to ensure that all people in NH have the knowledge, power and resources to access a safe, nutritious, affordable, and adequate food supply and participate in creating a sustainable, resilient, and just local food system.

Our mission

• Engage and connect diverse communities and organizations
• Educate people about hunger and its causes
• Collaborate to address systemic and root causes of hunger
• Buile power among leaders and communities to advocate for equitable access to nutritious, sustainable local food.
