In partnership with Cleveland Fresh, LLC, the Swetland Center will conduct a produce prescription landscape analysis to identify assets and gaps related to produce prescription programs. We will interview at least 30 individuals:
-
- Active produce prescription program implementers
- Patients who have participated in a produce prescription or other food as medicine program in the past year
- Local growers, nutrition educators, and food product makers
We will leverage the local farming and food hub networks to connect produce prescription programs to local food sources.
Recruitment for this landscape analysis has ended. Our team will share insights and recommendations from the interviews in Summer 2025. Email us at reach@case.edu to learn more.
