Strong, Connected and Informed Community Organizations

The Food Action Hub is an innovative response to the needs of community serving organizations and food security practitioners.

The Hub is a province wide member network that provides personal and online network support, up to date resources, connections for cross Manitoba collaboration and direct leadership development.  Through the Hub, community leaders and practitioners have access to support and can connect directly with others sector experts with related insights and experience.

The online Hub provides accessible connection for partners all across Manitoba. But, of course, Food Matters knows the value of in-person and face to face connection and relationships in the community work we all do. As the impacts of public health restrictions and social distancing , we look forward to creating additional offline opportunities for connection as well.

The Food Action Hub provides members a sector-focused social networking experience to connect, collaborate, learn & share and take action together towards a food secure Manitoba. This online platform provides access to curricula, curated external resources, value-added learning opportunities (e.g. webinars), referrals and connection to topic specific facilitators, and some one-on-one support from our trained staff (mentorship and coaching).

Our Goal: Provide support, resources and consistent community connection to partner agencies delivering food security programming across the province.
