School Food FOCUS is a national collaborative of large school districts across the country. Together we are transforming school food by increasing access to
more healthful, regionally sourced and sustainably produced food for our nation's school children. Through the power of procurement, we leverage market
demand to drive impactful change for a just food system.
Change Beyond the Plate will convene school food service professionals, institutional purchasers, government allies, industry changemakers and food
system thought leaders.
