Healthy Savannah Holds First Meeting To Discuss Food Policy Council

Healthy Savannah is asking for your input on nutrition and food insecurity in the area.

Tonight they held their first of several meetings to discuss a “Food Policy Council.”

They say the initiative isn’t new in Chatham County, but they are working to re-establishing it after it dwindled in the past few years.

They are looking for the council to become a more community-led in order to be more effective and inclusive.
