Improve access to healthy food

Reliable access to safe and healthy food is a basic human need that goes unmet for all too many people in Los Angeles County. Policies and practices that segregated people by race and class throughout the County’s history also drained economic activity, including food production and retail, from communities of concentrated disadvantage.

OurCounty will build off of existing programs to address this injustice by incentivizing an equitable food retail economy, maximizing the reach of food assistance and food recovery programs, and allowing LA County land to be used for more food production.
