Feeding America, in partnership with Elevance Health Foundation, has released the largest national food as medicine evaluation of food bank and health care partnerships. Findings from the landmark Food as Medicine 3.0 (FAM3) Cumulative Report show real, measurable health improvements, and showcase how food banks are uniquely positioned to bridge food access and health care. Over the last three years, more than 1.45 million patients were screened for food insecurity and more than 161,000 households across 13 states were connected to nutritious food, demonstrating that nutrition and health care support improves health. The $14.1 million investment from the Foundation – the largest grant in the Foundation’s history – helped the program grow to include 21 Feeding America network food banks and more than 50 health care sites across the country, with registered dietitian nutritionists and community health workers embedded throughout. This work reflects years of commitment from food banks, health care partners, and their local communities. It also makes a powerful case that community-based care is a critical and replicable model for addressing the health impacts of food insecurity at scale. Read the full report: https://lnkd.in/euSj34ZG
