Healthy opportunities Pilot program

The Healthy Opportunities Pilot (HOP) Program is an innovative Medicaid-funded program aimed at reducing the risks of adverse health outcomes through early interventions addressing social determinants.

At the Foothills Food Hub and McDowell LFAC, we take pride in serving HOP participants by delivering FREE healthy food boxes directly to their doors. These boxes are filled with food purchased from local farmers and pantry staples.
