Healthy FAM (Food Access Mapping) is a project of the Upper Coastal Plain Council of Governments (UPCOG), with funding support from the Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust.  The goal of the project is to identify needs and opportunities for increasing access to healthy, local food in the Upper Coastal Plain Region, which encompasses Edgecombe, Halifax, Nash, Northampton, and Wilson counties.  

To do this, we want to hear from you!

The survey

In this survey, you will be asked to share information about your food-related activities.  We want to hear your perspectives; there are no wrong answers to the questions.  The purpose of the survey is to inform and guide the regional assessment.  You are asked to provide your name and contact information in the survey so that we can track participation and ask follow-up questions as needed.  However, your name will not be publicly shared; responses will only be shared anonymously.

Use of information

UPCOG and its partners may share anonymous information collected through this project with the general public through online content, publications, reports, and presentations.  UPCOG may also, at its discretion, give permission to other organizations or individuals to use anonymous information from the project for purposes that are educational, charitable, and/or civic in nature.
