About Us

Our Vision

Equitable access to healthy food for all Southern Nevadans

Our Mission

The Southern Nevada Food Council will leverage the collective resources, expertise and passion of Southern Nevadans to influence the creation of equitable and sustainable food environment through education and policy.

Our Values

We support socially, economically, and ecologically sustainable food systems that promote health- the current and future health of individuals, communities and the natural environment. A healthy and sustainable food system is:

• Health-Promoting

• Sustainable

• Resilient

• Diverse in size and scale, geography, culture and choice

• Fair

• Economically Balanced

• Transparent

A health, sustainable food system emphasizes, strengthens and makes visible the interdependence and inseparable relationships between individual sectors (from production to waste disposal) and characteristics of the system.
