Even as we encourage our shoppers to use our Community Market services regularly, we also want to provide them with the food and nutrition coaching and financial training that lead to food and financial stability.

Our From Food to Finances program seeks to help underserved families become food secure and connect them to resources to regain their household stability through food resource and nutrition coaching, and SNAP referrals. Following nutrition coaching, individuals take part in financial coaching to gain greater household stability.

In partnership with Ascend Dallas, the premier financial coaching nonprofit in Dallas, we provide our shoppers with training and guidance on how to lift themselves out of poverty, become food and financially stable, and thrive. When individual households begin to stabilize, that has a broader impact and creates a supportive ecosystem to build nutrition-stable communities.
