We strive to be valued by the citizens of Idaho for our relentless, collaborative efforts to end food insecurity and hunger in our state. We leverage the efficiencies of a statewide partner network, while we maintain a focus on local community solutions. Our fact-based commitment is to serve the state, its communities, families and individuals, and to achieve and preserve nutritional health for food-insecure Idahoans. Our service model must always demonstrate the best available practices, as well as the highest level of compassion, dignity and respect for our stakeholders and for each other.
