Sheila believes that we can have strong children, strong families, and strong communities by ending food apartheid, increasing access to healthy meals and fresh produce.

By implementing and funding policies and programs like Food as Medicine that integrate healthy food access as a core component of health care, we can address food insecurity and improve health outcomes. Produce Plus, Produce Rx and Food & Friends' Home Delivered Meals are examples that involve multi-sector partnerships between health providers, government agencies, and healthy food retailers to ensure patients have access to the nutritious food they need for better health.
