FOOD PROJECT-THE FOUNDATION'S FOOD PROJECT TAKES A MULTIFACETED APPROACH TO SUPPORT A MORE SUSTAINABLE, HONEST, HUMANE AND SAFE FOOD SYSTEM. IN ITS LAWSUITS, IT REPRESENTS FARMERS, RURAL COMMUNITIES, CONSUMERS AND WORKERS WHO SHARE ITS VISION. IN ITS ADVOCACY, IT SPREADS AWARENESS OF THE SYSTEMIC INEQUITIES THAT HAVE ALLOWED THE CORPORATE TAKEOVER OF THE FOOD SYSTEM AND SHOW POLICYMAKERS AND THE PUBLIC HOW THEY CAN SUPPORT A RETURN TO FARMING FOCUSED ON SUSTAINING COMMUNITIES RATHER THAN EXTRACTING PROFIT.

ACCESS TO JUSTICE-This program includes legal and advocacy efforts and campaigns to fight forced arbitration, federal preemption and court secrecy. This program works to ensure that America's courthouses remain open, and accessible, for everyone.

Debtors Prison Project - The Debtors Prison Project combats the criminalization of poverty through strategic class action litigation on behalf of criminal defendants whose constitutional and other legal rights have been violated when local governments outsource the collection of court debt to for-profit corporations. The work aims to do away with the incentives municipal governments have to balance their budgets on the backs of indigent criminal defendants, and it aggressively targets corporate actors that profit by trapping these indigent defendants in a cycle of poverty.
