Barriers to paiiicipation are removed in order to hear from a diversity of voices and equity-deserving groups. Privacy is maintained throughout the data collection and engagement processes. • Respect and Dignity: Ideas and input from all contributors are valued and respected. Different perspectives are listened to with the intent to understand. Individuals with lived experience are treated with dignity, compassion and respect. • Collaboration and Partnerships: Connections and paiinerships are fostered among the variety of community food program contributors to encourage collaborative problem- solving, collective action and shared outcomes that maximize efficiencies and use of community resources. • Strategic, Evidence-Based Responses: The plan's actions are evidence-based, data- informed and aimed at addressing immediate needs while strengthening long-term community capacity. They align with and build upon leading municipal practices as well as City policies and strategies that respond to key drivers of food insecurity, such as poverty, homelessness, economic development and affordable housing, to address systemic barriers and offer practical, upstream solutions.
