Charity Mahouna Hicks was awarded a three-year Everybody at the Table for Health (EAT4Health) Fellowship in 2012. (See the Press Release). Housed at EMEAC, Charity will engage in base-building, leadership development, public outreach, research, and policy and materials development. 

EAT4Health is a three-year national leadership development initiative of the Jessie Smith Noyes Foundation supported by multiple funding partners that aims to fill gaps in the existing food policy advocacy ecosystem in order to make it more inclusive of low-income and people of color communities, more responsive to grassroots needs and ideas, and more effective in terms of protecting the environment, promoting good health and rebuilding strong local economies.
