Food Security Coalition
Working to ensure equitable access to healthy food.


Build connections among Greenville County community members and food system partners to foster creative solutions to ensure equitable access to sufficient, nutritious and culturally appropriate food, as well as to advocate for a community driven food system that improves the quality of life for all people.
We envision a Greenville County where all community members have equitable access to healthy foods, comprehensive community infrastructure to support those in need and a support system that enables individuals to move towards permanent food security.
1)
Improve coordination, communication and resource sharing across emergency food agencies to fill gaps in the system.
2)
Support policy, systems and environmental changes that will increase equitable access to healthy food.
