Supporting Community Health & Food Sovereignty
Oakland HOPS / Healthy Checkout is a youth-led advocacy project focused on bringing healthy options to retail checkout aisles across Oakland.
We engage community members with tabling events, collaborate with local organizations, and work closely with council members to share community concerns and bring large-scale policy change to Oakland.
Ultimately, we educate on food sovereignty and community-led action initiatives. We research the root causes of food apartheid and take action against these using the YPAR Model.
