    Descripción

    The California Association of Food Banks believes that food is a fundamental right. Food is medicine, it is fuel for learning, a teacher of cultures, and a convener of communities. And right now, 8 million Californians don't know how or when they will next eat.

    We're working to change that. We are proud to amplify the voice of food banks and of hungry Californians in the corridors of our statehouse and country's Capitol, in the offices of foundations and corporations, on farms and in fields, and throughout our state. We do this to influence public policy to enhance the safety net, ensure that fresh produce and healthy proteins are accessible to all Californians, connect hungry residents with nutrition programs, and support our 41 member food banks in their work to feed our communities.

    Our Values

    Dedication—We are committed to ending Hunger in CA while acknowledging and working to dismantle systems of oppression and injustice that perpetuate food insecurity.

    Inclusion—We value the diverse and intersectional voices, cultures, and experiences of our colleagues and of our state.

    Collaboration—We work with and support each other, our member food banks, partners, and the CA community.

    Transparency—We cultivate trust between each other and among our stakeholders through transparency.

    Accountability—We take ownership of our successes and mistakes, encouraging vulnerability and asking for help.

    The Team

    CAFB's Programs Department funds and supports a network of 60+ community-based organizations throughout California that help their communities access food through CalFresh, the state's largest anti-hunger program. The Training Program Manager draws from their own experience, and that of the network, to put on events that strengthen partner effectiveness. Events take place online and in person and range from training sessions, to networking events, to workshops with outside experts. Topics build on CalFresh knowledge and outreach skills, leadership development, equity and inclusion, and program design. The Programs team values collaboration, positioning partners as experts, being strategic in programming, providing excellent customer service, and presenting information in interactive ways.
