A Denver task force is trying to make sure everyone has access to healthy food. The task force says that low-income communities in Denver often lack access to supermarkets with affordable, healthy food. So they are trying to provide incentives for grocers to open new stores in under served neighborhoods, eliminating food deserts.

The Denver Food Access Task Force made recommendations to the Health, Safety and Education committee of the City Council. It includes prioritizing supermarket development at city hall, and streamlining the permit process for supermarket developers. They also push for a Fresh Food Financing Fund to encourage chains and independent grocers to build in the underserved neighborhoods that have been neglected for many years.
