2025 Medicaid Food Security Network National Summit Report

The Medicaid Food Security Network is a group of healthcare and food security stakeholders that is mobilizing Medicaid systems to become key partners in addressing food and nutrition insecurity. 

The inaugural Medicaid Food Security Network Summit occurred May 7-8, 2025, in Washington DC. The Summit brought together food security advocates, healthcare representatives (primarily from Medicaid agencies and managed care organizations), state government staff, state legislators, and allies to connect and learn about pursuing Medicaid policy change to improve food and nutrition security for children and families.
