HEAL Launches the School of Political Leadership

The HEAL Food Alliance just named its first cohort of 10 food and farm justice leaders to take part in the HEAL School of Political Leadership (SoPL), a year-long leadership development program to support talented individuals working to create inclusive, democratic food and farm systems.  SoPL will equip the inaugural cohort with the tools, knowledge, and skills they need to run for office, work on campaigns, and drive political change to transform our food and farm systems on the local, state and national levels.

The 2018 HEAL SoPL leaders are farmers, fishers, community activists, organizers, educators, and advocates working in diverse communities across the United States. Their work is creating pathways for a reimagined food and farm system – one which will result in thriving local economies, better stewardship for the environment, and healthier individuals and families nationwide.
