Lots of policy happening this legislative session to improve access to food for Utahns. 1 in 10 Utah households experience food insecurity. Thank you to @SenatorLuz for your leadership and your work to make Utahns more food secure. #utleg #utpol dailyutahchronicle.com/2022/02/13/cow…
#FarmtoSchool educational activities strengthen children’s understanding of agricultural practices and promote exposure to career opportunities in agriculture, nutrition, and other STEM-related subjects.
This #BlackHistoryMonth we are honoring America's first Black congresswoman, Shirley Chisholm. Chisholm worked tirelessly to expand food assistance and was instrumental in the creation of #WIC.
Thanks to @studentsrebuild's #WorldNeedsChallenge, we'll be able to continue to give schools and partners the resources, tools and training to feed kids. As Rialto’s Rahman-Davies said, “Ensuring no child goes hungry is going to take all of us.” Read more: bit.ly/3rBwtRv

As we celebrate Black History Month, it’s important to remember that we shouldn’t treat this month as though it is somehow separate from our collective American history. Black history is American history.
Each February, we have the honor of celebrating the generations of Black Americans whose courage, advocacy & patriotism have enriched our communities and strengthened our country. We will continue to fight for equity & increase access in our programs & services #BlackHistoryMonth

Today we honor and celebrate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. It is our mission to provide #equitable access to food and nutrition to all Americans. For more about our #CivilRights efforts visit: fns.usda.gov/civil-rights #MLKDay
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said: "Give us the ballot." For our children to thrive, we must improve the laws that provide for them – but we can't do that if every American can't vote freely. Let's all do our part to protect voting rights – for our kids and their futures. #MLKDay
