Such an awesome program and a great way to tackle multiple tough problems (how to reduce recidivism rates; how to solve the food desert problem in urban areas; how to improve the health & nutrition of the black community) with one solution.

Programs like this really give me hope, I wish there were more incentives from the government to spark innovations like this; monolithic solutions like food stamps and medicaid are strong programs that I support, but on the other end I'd like to see more funding for "micro-service" programs like this that solve issues on a census tract scale.
