The La Plata Food Equity Coalition (LPFEC) is a collective impact effort composed of nonprofits, health and human services agencies, businesses, government entities, and community members with lived experience, working together to eradicate food insecurity in La Plata County. Our approach to this audacious goal is grounded in residents’ responses to the question “What would it take for your household to have food that nourishes your wellbeing?” The responses we heard have focused the coalition’s efforts to address upstream causes of food insecurity, such as financial stability, language access, and power & belonging.  The LPFEC is a project of The Good Food Collective, which acts as its backbone organization, responsible for HR, administration, funding and reporting.
