FIMCON Food Is Medicine Conference
For the first time, leading organizations advancing Food is Medicine are joining forces to launch FIMCON, a national conference uniting an entire ecosystem that is transforming how America thinks about health, nutrition, and care.
More than 750 healthcare professionals, FIM practitioners and program participants, researchers, policymakers, community leaders, and funders will come together at the Grand Hyatt Washington for a groundbreaking event: a unified, large-scale convening of the entire Food is Medicine field.
Powered by the collective reach and expertise of:
- Center for Health Law and Policy Innovation of Harvard Law School (CHLPI)
- Food is Medicine Coalition (FIMC)
- Food is Medicine Institute at Tufts University
- National Produce Prescription Collaborative (NPPC)
Food is Medicine has reached a critical juncture. Policy opportunities are expanding. Federal and state investments are growing. Scientific validation is strengthening. Public awareness is rising. The time is ripe for a central convening with the scale, strategic location, and cross-sector reach needed to channel this momentum into lasting change.
FIMCON meets this need.
FIMCON is the launchpad for the next era of Food is Medicine, where fragmented efforts become a coordinated force, where emerging practitioners find mentorship and community, where policymakers hear directly from those doing the work, and where funders see the full scope of what’s possible.
FIMCON is made possible with the generous support of:
- Dohmen Company Foundation
- Kaiser Permanente
- RF Catalytic Capital, Inc. with support from Builders Vision and The Rockefeller Foundation
