On July 1, the Summer 2025 cohort of the Advocacy Leadership Academy wrapped up its final session—and with it, we’re proud to celebrate the graduation of 12 emerging community leaders.
Over the past eight weeks, these participants built power together—growing their advocacy skills, deepening their understanding of policy, and expanding their knowledge around campaign strategy and power-building. They brought their unique perspectives and commitment to equity into every session.
For Coloradans of all identities, food is not just nourishment; it’s a celebration of culture, an expression of joy, and a tool for resistance and cultural preservation. For immigrant and LGBTQIA2+ communities, food has long served as both a lifeline and a love language—a way to hold on to heritage, resist marginalization, and cultivate community. There is no better place to witness that intersection than at the table.
Access to nutritious food is critical for young children and families, yet Trump’s 2026 federal budget proposal would slash benefits to the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), particularly the monthly fruit and vegetable benefit for children and pregnant participants.
This Juneteenth, we celebrate the day that marked the end of slavery in the United States as well as reflect on the deep connections between racial justice and food justice. Join us in uplifting Black voices — applauding their leadership and successes, and honoring their resilience and perseverance in the face of ongoing adversity within and beyond our food system.
The 2025 state legislative session brought some notable wins, valuable lessons, and new momentum for our food justice movement. In our recap, you’ll see which laws were enacted, which were stalled, and what’s ahead as we continue building a policy and advocacy landscape rooted in equity and community power.

Last week, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a harmful budget bill that would slash funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and other critical public benefit programs. Find out more about the legislation's impacts on SNAP and what they mean for Coloradans—and what actions would be most impactful right now.
A bipartisan state bill would make it easier for all Coloradans to get nutrition support from qualified professionals, regardless of their income, insurance, or location. Our Policy Director, Greta Allen (who’s also a registered dietitian), shares why this is a key step toward a more just and inclusive healthcare system.
