Food Policy Council Program

The national Food Policy Council (FPC) Program is designed to support the development of current and emerging Food Policy Councils, and to help them link with and build markets for local farmers. The program surveys FPCs on their needs, provides direct technical assistance, facilitates information sharing, and identifies policy ideas and promising practices for supporting local farmers (especially women, people of color, limited resource, and other traditionally underserved groups).
