Food is Medicine
Food is Medicine recognizes the power of nutrition to help manage illness alongside health care. We are the Rocky Mountain-Region expert in Food is Medicine, and we advocate for its principles as part of our Purpose.
Project Angel Heart and Feeding Colorado are excited to announce the creation of Food is Medicine Colorado (FIMCO), a statewide multi-stakeholder coalition aimed at enhancing the role of nutrition in health care and increasing access to medically tailored food and nutrition services for people living with (or at increased risk for) severe, complex, and/or chronic illnesses.

The Colorado Food is Medicine Summit is an annual day-long event that brings together thought leaders from across Colorado to discuss the latest in Food is Medicine and explore strategies to increase access to essential nutrition programs.
What attendees have said:
“The selection of speakers was dynamic, expert, approachable, and diverse.”
“Absolute slam-dunk of an experience. Having both grassroots leaders and executive directors discuss Food is Medicine at the same summit made the discussion well-rounded and provided a wealth of information.”
“Felt like the latest, most cutting-edge information on FIM and current issues.”
