This APHA and Nutrition Section document, The Role of Public Health Community in Advancing Food Is Medicine, describes how public health practitioners can add value to and advance FIM interventions and the actions they can take to ensure FIM program participants will have the resources, knowledge, access, and empowerment to sustain long-term healthy food choices and practices after clinical interventions conclude. Specific case studies for the partnership of FIM with public health initiatives described in this document illustrate the variations in settings, populations enrolled, FIM interventions, longevity, funding sources, and measured outcomes of the public health and health care linkages.
