Local Food Alliances and Policy Councils
CFJC believes that changes start at the local level. To address local food access issues and to strengthen community ties, we collaborate with a variety of Bay Area food justice and climate action coalitions, and attend local events and conferences that further our mission.
We hope to expand our involvement with other local organizations and alliances as part of building a grassroots movement for systemic change.
