As the voice of our network’s 700+ partner programs, the Food Bank’s Advisory Council is made up of representatives from leading free food markets, pantries, meal sites and delivery programs throughout the region. These leaders draw on their lived experience and on-the-ground expertise to guide community-centered decisions around everything we do — from the food we source to the policy change we seek to address hunger’s root causes.
The Advisory Council’s next cohort begins in Fall 2024. Stay tuned for additional information.
