Food Justice
Our Food Justice program aims to end food insecurity which is experienced by communities of color in the Portland Metro Area due to racial and ethnic disparities.
We address these issues by providing the following services:
- Free food Pantries and Markets: culturally specific and nutritious food is accessible to the community six times each month at different school-based locations.
