Access to healthy foods is important in the fight against chronic diseases. The Cherokee Nation Community Health Promotion Program is working program partners to increase the number of people with access to environments with healthy food and beverage options. Cherokee Nation assists partners through technical assistance and resources to expand and enhance access to farmers markets, and farm to school programs in the Cherokee Nation.
