Become an Advocate

Together we can show decision-makers at every level how to improve food access for all Coloradans, regardless of zip code. No matter the issue – family nutrition programs, school breakfast and lunch or community food systems – contacting the right elected officials at key times can mean Colorado’s children, immigrants, working families and food system workers get the affordable, nutritious food they need to thrive.

Share Your Story

Each situation is unique, but no one is in this alone. By sharing your story and experience of struggle or triumph, you can encourage others, elevate the issue of hunger in community dialogue, and impact policy in our state. Stories could be used within our external communications, advocacy asks or fundraising appeals, depending on how you’d like your story to have impact. If you have a story to share, we want to hear it.
