SUMMARY:2017 Policy Briefing in Washington\, DC
DESCRIPTION:4th Annual SAFSF Policy Briefing \n\n\n\nPOWER IN ACTION\n\n\n\nDecember 4-6\, 2017Washington\, DCFunders-Only Event \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPOLICY BRIEFING THEME\n\n\n\nFrom coast to coast\, citizens are raising their voices and advocating for their values through unprecedented civic engagement. Funders are activating their networks and resources to cultivate relationships and pursue equitable and sustainable outcomes in the food system. While there is an urgency to many of the issues at hand\, the importance of supporting ongoing efforts has never been more clear. Long-term impact demands creativity\, agility\, courage\, persuasive messaging\, and proactive policy engagement. \n\n\n\nThe 4th Annual SAFSF Policy Briefing returns to Washington\, DC\, a city where power and privilege coexist alongside significantly marginalized communities\, disproportionately comprised of people of color who are at a political\, social\, and economic disadvantage. The 2017 Policy Briefing\, Power in Action\, will share stories from frontline communities that are harnessing their collective power; provide insights from individuals working within existing structures of political power; and examine funders’ responsibility to generate equitable outcomes. Join us in the capital city this December to build connections\, align strategies\, and transform power into action.

SUMMARY:2016 Policy Briefing in Sacramento\, CA
DESCRIPTION:3rd Annual SAFSF Policy Briefing \n\n\n\nVISION TO ACTION \n\n\n\nBuilding Power on Shaky Ground\n\n\n\nDecember 12-14\, 2016Sacramento\, CA \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPOLICY BRIEFING THEMEDuring these times of political and ecological uncertainty\, the visions and actions of those working in the sustainable agriculture and food movement need to be expansive and effective. SAFSF invites you to the West Coast for a continuing conversation about what it will take to ensure that local and national policies all work together to keep these visions alive and make them a powerful source of influence. \n\n\n\nSacramento\, the state capital\, is located in the northern part of California’s Central Valley—a 1.5 million-acre agricultural powerhouse where farmers and farmworkers grow more than 120 crops for market. In this region\, local issues become national (e.g. water\, labor rights\, immigration) and national trends literally change the landscape (e.g. healthier diets\, organic agriculture). The Central Valley is a microcosm of the pressures and positive trends in the American food system. We will consider the opportunities presented in the face of election results while emphasizing the inherent linkages between health and food\, social justice and sustainable agriculture\, democracy and inclusion. Challenging yet inspiring work lies ahead—join us!

SUMMARY:2015 SAFSF Policy Briefing in Des Moines\, IA
DESCRIPTION:2nd Annual SAFSF Policy Briefing \n\n\n\nBUILDING POWER IN THE CENTER\n\n\n\nFor an Inclusive Food System\n\n\n\nDecember 9-10\, 2015Des Moines\, Iowa \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPOLICY BRIEFING THEME \n\n\n\nPublic policies—from city zoning to state water laws to national dietary guidelines to the federal farm bill—shape food and agriculture in ways that impact all of us. Today\, many of our policies are designed without fully connecting public interests\, environmental concerns\, and shared economic prosperity. And too often\, the policy process fails to engage people at the grassroots level. \n\n\n\nWe invite you to join us in America’s Heartland\, where we will examine local\, state\, and national policies that can move us closer to an inclusive food system—one that protects public health and the environment and provides food producers and workers with dignity and a good living. Through plenaries\, workshops\, and strategy sessions\, we will explore ways in which philanthropy can support these policies and build the power of the sustainable agriculture and food movement. We hope you will be part of the conversation.

SUMMARY:2014 SAFSF Policy Briefing in Washington\, DC
DESCRIPTION:SAFSF Inaugural Policy Briefing \n\n\n\nBUILDING POWERFrom Kitchen Tables to Capitol Hill\n\n\n\nDecember 9-11\, 2014Washington\, D.C. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Farm Bill reauthorization is now in the political rear-view mirror and while not all appetites were satisfied with the law that was enacted\, the reauthorization process revealed that the path to federal legislation is never straight. It veers to the left and right and has become increasingly narrow. However\, new paths to food and farm policy are under construction and being enacted at the local\, state and regional levels. SAFSF’s 2014 Inaugural Policy Briefing in Washington\, D.C. will focus on power building and how grassroots organizing\, storytelling and unlikely alliances can and are leading to important shifts in policy across the country. This year’s keynote speaker\, Jane Kleeb of BOLD Nebraska\, will share stories from her work: organizing farmers and ranchers in Nebraska who oppose the Keystone XL pipeline and building their capacity to engage in policy work. \n\n\n\nThe Policy Briefing event will offer multiple learning opportunities including introductory 101 workshops on policymaking and organizing and two plenary panels focused on building the base for social change and how policy shapes the health of our food system. Concurrent workshops on topics such as land conservation\, trade pacts\, corporate concentration in the food system\, food safety regulations\, immigration\, and the power of media in influencing policy will whet your appetite for more. We hope you will plan to take part in the optional Capitol Hill visits* with Congressional representatives and key committee members. \n\n\n\nWe look forward to seeing you in Washington D.C. in December. \n\n\n\n*Hill Visits organized in partnership with the National Sustainable Agriculture Association (NSAC).
