Nevada’s Council on Food Security (CFS) was established in 2014 through an executive order and subsequently codified into state law during the 80th Legislative Session in 2019 as Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) 232.4968. The primary objective of CFS is to combat hunger among Nevadans, particularly children and older adults, who face a heightened risk of food insecurity. The tasks associated with this objective include, but are not limited to, evaluating legislation and protocols that influence food policy infrastructure. CFS also convenes special session meetings and holds regular quarterly meetings to deliberate on various subjects (e.g., funding sources, food-security emergency response strategies, quality of service and meals provided to Nevadans, and food security policy); offer feedback; and formulate recommendations, which include an annual report to the Director of the Legislative Counsel Bureau (LCB). This report additionally contains details on community gardens and urban farms as stipulated by per NRS 232.4968.
