We actively advocate across a diverse spectrum of food nutrition issues, including federal programs and services designed to provide families, mothers, infants and school children with access to affordable and nutritious food options.
Current Key Issues
To help consumers choose foods that meet their family’s needs and overcome barriers to healthy eating, nutrition incentive programs should include frozen foods.
Federal Feeding Programs: We support ensuring access to food, regardless of temperature state, in all federal feeding programs that serve vulnerable populations.
Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC): We support the expansion of acceptable formats of fruits and vegetables in WIC and requiring all state agencies to include frozen fruits and vegetables in their WIC programs.
Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP): We advocate for the preservation of SNAP participants food purchasing choices and seek to ensure that program restrictions that would keep them from shopping the frozen food aisle are not implemented.
