2023 Food Security Fly in Week: Everybody Eats

This past February, the Alaska Food Policy Council joined the Alaska Food Coalition, along with many other food organizations, for a week of advocacy and education in Juneau.

Here are some wonderful resources created by the Alaska Food Coalition, outlining food access programs in Alaska, with some suggestions for improvements:

• Impacts of SNAP in Alaska

• Broad-Based Categorical Eligibility (BBCE)

• Food Bank of Alaska was grateful to secure $10 million for food bank infrastructure last session
