Food Equality Initiative

Food Equality Initiative is a non-profit organization based in Kansas City, MO, dedicated to providing food access and education to individuals at the intersection of food insecurity and diet-treated conditions. Through their Food Is Medicine Access Program, they subsidize a direct-to-door grocery delivery service for qualified clients, aiming to alleviate the financial and psychological burden of managing a diet-treated illness. Their mission is to ensure that everyone has access to the foods they need, regardless of their journey or diagnosis.

Since 2014, Food Equality Initiative has been committed to ending hunger in the food allergy and celiac disease community. In 2021, they expanded their services to include all diet-treated illnesses and fully embraced the food is medicine movement. They serve qualified clients in Jackson County, Missouri, as well as Johnson and Wyandotte Counties in Kansas, providing subsidized access to an online grocery market offering a variety of nutritious options. Their goal is to nourish those in need and empower individuals and families to manage their diet-treated health conditions effectively.
