SimpleVeg provides training, strategic support and grass-roots community building to local chapters across the U.S seeking to organize folks to Eat More Plants for health and environment. Chapters are either autonomous established grass roots organizations, or new associations created locally to be part of the SimpleVeg network. Chapters agree to participate in a common staff/volunteer on-boarding training (60 minutes), share data, and be connected via SimpleVeg’s Discord communications account/smartphone app to other SimpleVeg folks across the nation for community and ongoing education. In addition to digital training, education, and networking materials, SimpleVeg also offers strategic guidance in fund raising, organizing and non-profit administration, and the possibility of strategically uniting with other chapters across the U.S. However, whether, and to what extent, a chapter participates in such strategic guidance and partnership is decided by each local chapter. There is no fee for partnering with SimpleVeg. Training and support are offered in the following areas:

Plant-Based Nutrition

Food and Sustainability/Climate

Food Liberation/Equity/Empowerment for Communities of Color and Working Class Communities

Food Sovereignty and Local Growing

Organizing and Outreach (including commitment to respect, love, non-violence, non-discrimination, and inclusiveness)

Fund Raising and Non-Profit Administration
