H.R. 10171 — Improving Health Through Integrated Food and Nutrition Services at Federally Qualified Health Centers Act

This section states congressional findings that millions of Americans face food insecurity as a driver of poor health outcomes and chronic disease; that federally qualified health centers are positioned to integrate food and nutrition services into clinical care; and that these centers serve populations disproportionately affected by food insecurity, chronic disease, and limited access to nutritious food.

This section establishes a competitive grant program administered by the Secretary of Health and Human Services through the Health Resources and Services Administration to award funds to Federally qualified health centers for food insecurity screening, on-site food pantries, partnerships with food banks and nutrition programs, employment of registered dietitians, and culturally tailored nutrition education. It authorizes $100 million annually for fiscal years 2027 through 2031 and requires coordination with SNAP and WIC for referrals and enrollment.
