Tallahassee Food Network 
History

The Health Equity Alliance of Tallahassee

The Tallahassee Food Network (TFN) evolved from efforts of the Greater Frenchtown Revitalization Council Front Porch Florida initiative. The collaboration of Greater Frenchtown Revitalization Council, University of Florida Department of Anthropology, and local researchers launched Health Equity Alliance of Tallahassee (HEAT). HEAT’s mission is to explain and eliminate the causes of social inequalities in health by bridging the gaps between research and action. HEAT envisions policy change that leads to equal health for all. From the early efforts of HEAT, various subcommittees formed to combat health inequality, including the Policy Council, Heart Health, Food Environment, and Childhood Obesity Prevention Education (COPE) Coalition, which have all developed extensive partnerships that continue to expand.
