Mission Statement

Improve the quality of life and health of Nevadans by increasing food security throughout the state.

Principles

1. Incorporate economic development opportunities into food security solutions.
2. Use a comprehensive, coordinated approach to ending hunger and promoting health and nutrition, rather than just providing emergency short-term assistance.
3. Focus on strategic partnerships between all levels of government, communities, and nonprofit organizations including foundations, private industries, universities, and research institutions. 
4. Use available resources in a more effective and efficient way.
5. Implement research-based strategies to achieve measurable results.
