The City’s Department of Health & Wellness seeks a consultant to develop a Food System Plan (the “Plan”) that will help to strengthen our local food system by improving resilience, addressing food insecurity, and increasing access to nutritionally dense foods.
Professional services are needed to conduct research and mapping/data analysis; gather widespread community and stakeholder input; develop a comprehensive baseline inventory/assessment of the food environment and food flows across the City, inclusive of the emergency feeding system; identify resources and unmet needs; and develop recommendations, planning, policy, partnerships, and initiatives related to improving healthy food access and resilience. The Consultant should also have experience with successfully engaging a wide variety of community members, food system actors, and other stakeholders in the development of food system plans.
