The Food is Medicine Core is actively designing and implementing 13 FIM studies across pediatric, diabetic, and high-risk pregnant populations.
Our FIM Core provides expertise and support in design, implementation, evaluation, institutionalization, and scaling of FIM efforts. Our team of registered dietitians, behavior scientists, epidemiologists, and data scientists uses a data-driven, human-centered design to ensure an equitable approach to FIM.
Collaborating with health systems, payers, community-based organizations, and FIM providers, the Center brings together partnerships, community, and stakeholders to build momentum for sustainable FIM programming across Texas.
Turning Visual Insights into Action
Using Power BI and ArcGIS Pro, the Center for Healthy Communities brings FIM data to life through interactive charts, dashboards, and statewide maps.
FIM Landscape Scan
In collaboration with our FIM Advisory Board, we conducted a statewide FIM landscape scan to provide us with sightlines into the 48 FIM programs being implemented across Texas.
