LEGISLATION

Advancing Food is Medicine

Dr. Meagan Grega, Chief Medical Officer of Kellyn, and Eric Ruth, CEO of Kellyn, have worked closely with legislators on a bipartisan effort to expand access to Food Is Medicine programs nationwide.

Kellyn is proud to be a national endorser of the Accountable Produce Is Medicine Act (APIM) in both the House of Representatives (H.R. 8355) and the Senate (S. 5267).
Through its advocacy and Lifestyle Medicine programs, Kellyn is helping advance a new approach to chronic disease management, one that goes beyond simply recommending healthy eating during a doctor’s visit. Instead, it connects people with affordable, accessible, and practical healthy food, along with the community support needed to make lasting changes.
​

Kellyn’s Lifestyle Medicine program is at the forefront of the national movement to expand Food Is Medicine initiatives. We are excited to work alongside legislators and community partners to help create a future where healthy choices are not simply encouraged, they are accessible, practical, affordable, and supported.
