Elizabeth Goodman, Rose Law Group senior attorney and chair of the firm’s government affairs department, was a featured speaker at the Flagstaff Family Food Center’s 2026 Northern Arizona Anti-Hunger Summit.

The event, themed “Feeding the Work: Sustaining Progress Amid Rising Hunger, Increased Resistance, and Collective Fatigue,” brought together nonprofit leaders, tribal partners, community members, healthcare professionals, government officials and educators to discuss the future of food access and security. Adrienne Udarbe, CEO of longtime Rose Law Group client Pinnacle Prevention, moderated the discussion.

During its representation of Pinnacle Prevention, Rose Law Group has helped secure more than $10 million for the Double Up Food Bucks program, which expands access to fresh fruits and vegetables for SNAP recipients. The firm also secured $3 million for United Food Bank in the fiscal year 2027 budget.
