Food for Change Begins At Birth: The First Food Movement in the Community
The same inequities and systemic barriers that exist in the broader food system also impact the first food environment and, therefore, the most vulnerable among us--infants. In this keynote, Kimberly Seals Allers combines her experience as an IATP Food & Community Fellow and director of the First Food Friendly Community Initiative (3FCI) to discuss the infant feeding landscape from a food security lens. She will discuss the role of community in sparking cultural shifts, share updates on the First Food Friendly work in Detroit and create a blueprint for achieving community first food justice.
