The Fresh Foods Rx Produce Prescription Program is a “Food is Medicine” initiative where educational programs aim to teach the benefits of healthy eating and how to make nutritious food choices to promote healthy lifestyles.   

The goal is to improve the dietary health of participants with chronic health conditions and food insecurity to allow for positive lifestyle changes resulting in decreased overall risk factors, improved long-term health outcomes, better quality of life, and reduced medical services and associated costs.

The “Food is Medicine” idea is rooted in the belief that the foods we consume can have a profound impact on our overall well-being, much like medical treatments, offering a proactive approach to health management and disease prevention.
