Healthy Freedom Resolution Vote
Los Angeles Unified School District Board Room
May 9, 2017

On May 9, 2017 Lila and her team of Earth Peace student partners, Dr. Neil Barnard of Physician’s Committee for Responsible Medicine, Dr. Jay Gordon, pediatrician, Tim Moore aka “Vegan Fat Kid”, Babette Davis vegan athlete and restauranteur, and the incredible Fiona Oakes two-time world record holding marathoner, lifelong vegan and founder of Tower Hill Stables and Animal Sanctuary in the UK converged with 200 supporters on the LAUSD board meeting for the resolution vote for the Healthy Freedom initiative.

Our resolution passed by unanimous vote and the pilot for Healthy Freedom was born. Since then it’s been a huge success with up to 51% of the students in pilot schools choosing the vegan lunch option. 45 schools have been added for the daily vegan lunch option and the goal is to have every LAUSD school with the lunch choice every day of the school year by 2019 end of year.
