I Am An Individual

Not a brand, but still want to get involved? We’ll help you get started! Here are a few resources to help you use your voice to make a difference in your local community. 

These are the main areas we’ve identified for individuals to take action:

Educate yourself! Stay on top of the latest terms, policy updates and important developments in the nutrition space.

Use conscious language when talking about food access, food systems and food justice.

  • This means considering all values, cultures, diverse indigenous food systems, traditions and local circumstances that contribute to the choices people make around food.
  • Learn what terms to use by visiting Healthline’s Conscious Language guide.
  • Dive deeper with the Healthy Living Coalition Food Advocacy Terms 101 and learn how to talk about the issues.

Train your Instagram algorithm to share more about these issues by following relevant accounts.

Share what you know with friends, family and neighbors. You never know who you’ll inspire!

  • Raising awareness with just one or two people can have a huge ripple effect over time.
  • Help us spread the word on social media! We have easy infographics for you to share! Keep us in the loop by using hashtags: (#foodsystems/ #healthylivingcoalition / #goodfood4all, etc.)
