food justice

Fair nutrition access

Food justice is a social movement and framework addressing inequities in how food is produced, distributed, and accessed.

It examines how race, class, and geography determine who gets healthy food and who works in exploitative agricultural conditions.

Advocates push for fair wages for farmworkers, community control over food systems, and ending food deserts—neighborhoods without access to fresh groceries.

The organization approaches hunger as a food justice issue, not just charity.
