The Express Bite “Champions of Healthy Food Access” program is committed to eliminating food insecurities by reducing the disparities in access to healthy foods. Express Bite will promote healthier, more equitable communities by leading disruptive innovations with a multi-faceted approach that utilizes targeted distribution of locally-sourced produce and nutritious meals through our “Express Bite Mobile Market” bus. In addition, the Food Access Street Team (FAST) will provide Education, Counseling and Enrollment into social programs including Cal Fresh, WIC and the Express Bite Market Match. The Express Bite Mobile Market: an innovative way to provide direct food access using targeted distribution such as mobile transportation to distribute a culturally- diverse menu of healthy, fresh and affordable locally-sourced produce, ready-to-eat meals, beverages and snacks, to Los Angeles’s 1.75 million food insecure residents in the County’s food deserts and food swamps, including the most vulnerable populations, prioritizing support to programs that serve children and seniors.
