The Chicago Food Policy Advisory Council (CFPAC) has been in development since 2001. The council utilizes consensus to establish a mission, organizational and operating structure, and outreach to ensure inclusive membership representing a cross section of Chicago’s residents. The council is also linked to a statewide network of councils organized by the Illinois Stewardship Alliance. The CFPAC became a 501c3 non-profit.
