Prince George’s Fresh is a pilot fruit and vegetable coupon benefit program designed to increase access to healthy food in Prince George’s County. The program allows medical professionals at participating clinics to recommend produce vouchers and nutrition education to patients experiencing diet-related chronic illness. Prince George’s Fresh is an innovative opportunity to engage cross-sectoral partners in an evidence based model to address county health disparities and food insecurity.

Through a collaborative partnership between the FEC, Institute for Public Health Innovation, Giant Food, Amerigroup, Anthem Foundation, and the Healthy Eating Active Living Workgroup of the Prince George’s Healthcare Action Coalition, and participating healthcare providers, Prince George’s Fresh seeks to increase healthy food access for Prince George’s County residents.
