SHIP provides an exciting opportunity to increase access to healthy foods in Minnesota. In November, six convenings will be offered across greater Minnesota to explore the concept of "food systems" and provide important resources and information for improving community food environments.  Each convening will focus on how changes to policies, systems, and environments can affect what food is available in a community. Participants will hear helpful presentations, learn about useful case studies and resources, and have time for dialogue with SHIP colleagues in each region. A healthy lunch will also be served.

This event is co-sponsored by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota and the Minnesota Department of Health.
