Access to nutritious, affordable food is essential for community well-being. Hartford faces significant barriers, with only one full-service grocery store serving the entire city. This lack of access disproportionately affects People of Color and low-income families.
The Healthy Hartford Hub addresses this challenge head-on by:
- Developing a full-service supermarket in the North Hartford Promise Zone.
- Reducing food deserts and bringing fresh produce closer to residents.
- Partnering with community initiatives like the Transforming Communities Initiative and the ….project.
By investing in a sustainable grocery model and advocating for policy changes, we aim to make healthy food accessible to all Hartford residents.
