Food Is Medicine

Technical Assistance Collaborative

Empowering healthcare professionals to prioritize access to healthy food as a standard part of healthcare in South Carolina.

Our Mission

The Food is Medicine Technical Assistance Collaborative (FiMTAC) supports the growth and sustainability of food is medicine approaches throughout South Carolina by providing resources, implementation models, training and technical assistance opportunities.

These efforts aim to expand access to healthy foods and reduce the prevalence and costs of diet-related chronic diseases.

Primary support for this work was funded by the South Carolina Center for Rural and Primary Healthcare as part of the state’s rural health initiative.
