Good Food at Home is our signature nutrition security program that helps under-resourced families access good food and build healthy eating habits.

Where you live can determine the kinds of food you can access and afford. That’s why our Good Food at Home program bridges the gap in under-resourced communities by providing families with fresh fruits and vegetables. The program has been shown to help families increase fruit and vegetable consumption and create sustained healthy habits: 85% of participants say they’ve been able to buy more produce than they can usually afford and 87% say the program has helped them build healthy eating habits.

To date, PHA and its community partners have helped families access good food in over 30 communities across the country.

Good Food Cities is a collective impact model with the vision to double produce consumption in 15 cities by 2030.

We cannot create food and health equity alone. That’s why we’re uniting the charitable, philanthropic, public, and private sectors to activate evidence-based, outcomes-oriented interventions centered on food as a driver of whole health. So far, Denver, Colorado and Indianapolis, Indiana have joined our cause — and more will join us soon.

Veggies Early & Often is a nutrition education coalition that aims to raise a generation of veggie lovers.

Veggies Early & Often brings together early childhood educators, medical professionals, and food manufacturers to raise awareness about the importance of vegetables for young children. We support caregivers in offering more vegetable-forward, health-building food to children aged 5 and under.

Through Healthy Hunger Relief, we are collaborating with the charitable food system to prioritize nutritious food.

A healthy food supply means better health outcomes for families that are under-resourced. That’s why Healthy Hunger Relief supports food banks across the nation to assess the nutritional quality of their food inventory, and move towards practices that increase health-building food.

Since 2016, we have partnered with over 60 food banks that reach more than 21.5 million individuals. Together, PHA and our food bank partners ensure that communities and families across the country have access to high-quality, nutritious foods.

PHA’s work in the Mississippi Delta is our inaugural rural place-based initiative that boosts community health through economic development.

While the Mississippi Delta is home to adverse economic and health conditions, the region has strong agricultural traditions and a rich and powerful cultural history, and is primed for a local food system that supports health and cultural connectivity. Fresh vegetables and fruits are a powerful driver for individual health and wellbeing, and the primary tool to promote nutrition security. Our goal is to connect Delta families to produce grown by Delta farmers, one zip code at a time.
