Healthy Food Bill Signed by Governor

Governor Perry signed HB 1622 into law. The bill, creates a program to distribute healthy foods to children at-risk of hunger and obesity. We are thankful that the pathway is cleared for better nutrition and support for local healthy foods for those in need. Unfortunately, the program will remain unfunded if money is not found in our strapped state budget. Thanks to our friends at the Texas Food Bank Network and their partners for laying this important groundwork. You can find out more about this initiative, here.
