There is a growing belief among Chicago citizens that all residents should have access to safe, culturally acceptable and nutritionally adequate food through a sustainable food system that
maximises community self-reliance and social justice. A variety of efforts are underway to raise the
level of public discourse on this issue in order to design a sustainable food system that will be
able to foster the development of community food security in Chicago.
