Partners
FCAP partners take a multi-level approach to increasing food access and reducing the environmental harms caused by wasted food in five Rhode Island municipalities: Providence, Pawtucket, Central Falls, Newport, and Middletown. Together, we are creating measurable progress toward a more just and resilient food system in RI while cultivating civic engagement, a key ingredient in the democratic process.
Arts Program
Art helps fight climate change by turning complex data into stories and images that make the crisis feel personal, urgent, and real. The FCAP Arts Program provides community-engaged grants to Rhode Island artists and arts organizations for compost and/or food recovery site beautification projects that connect concepts of wasted food, food access, composting, and climate change in five target municipalities (Providence, Pawtucket, Central Falls, Newport, and Middletown).
Application Coming in 2027.
