The Urban School Food Alliance is a data-driven nonprofit founded in 2012 by school nutrition professionals in large districts with a mission to change the landscape of child nutrition. For more than a decade, its members have worked to improve food quality, access, and sustainability in the United States. Their achievements include helping school districts adopt an antibiotic-free standard for poultry, even before many of the nation’s leading restaurants, and removing 225 million polystyrene trays from landfills every year by implementing compostable plates. USFA leverages this expertise and experience to share evidence-informed practices, make high-quality ingredients available and affordable, and advocate for policies that support programs and students.
