About

California Food Policy Advocates (CFPA) is a statewide organization dedicated to improving the health and well-being of low-income Californians by increasing their access to nutritious, affordable food. CFPA values public policies that recognize the fundamental contributions of nutrition to health, education, productivity, and overall well-being. Since our founding in 1992, we've employed a variety of strategies to develop and implement such policies. Our core strategies include legislative and administrative advocacy, policy oriented research, promotion and outreach, technical assistance and training, and local, state and regional partnerships. CFPA is based in Oakland, California and has a regional office in Los Angeles, as well as a presence in California’s Central Valley and at the State Capitol in Sacramento, CA.
