Partnership for a Healthier America (PHA)

Commitments: PHA negotiates voluntary business practice change among private sector partners that work to improve the food supply and increase healthy choices. As part of these partnerships, PHA coordinates monitoring activities over the life of the agreement and works with third party contractors to verify progress.

Convening: PHA brings together thousands of leaders from the private sector, government, and non-profit space to transform the food system through a variety of convening and coalition opportunities, including PHA's annual food equity summit and its coalition of Veggies Early & Often partners that are seeking to shape early palates and create lifelong habits of healthy eating in our youngest eaters.

Catalyzing Action: Both nationally and regionally, PHA creates and executes programs that build both the supply and demand for vegetables and fruits in all of their forms, working with partners across the public, private and charitable sector. Our Good Food for All program provides participating families with 50 servings of fruits and vegetables weekly for 12 weeks, creating a long-lasting habit of produce. PHA's Healthy Hunger Relief program recognizes, elevates and accelerates the work of food banks across the country that are uplifting the health and well-being of their communities. Our regional food equity work focuses on community-driven change to increase consumption of vegetables and fruits by building a greater local supply and increasing demand.
