We offer a comprehensive system of child nutrition services for low-income children and families. We believe that good nutrition should begin during early childhood when habits are being formed.

Our nutrition services include:

	Well balanced and nutritious meals that follow the United States Department of Agriculture's Food Program meal guidelines.
	Nutrition screening and assessment.
	Individual nutrition counseling by a Registered Dietitian for families with children at nutritional risk.
	Nutrition education at parent meetings and through menus and newsletters.
	A Nutrition curriculum which promotes physical activity and healthy eating habits.

We also work with our community partners to support community-wide education aimed at reducing the rising problem of childhood obesity.

Using a grant from the California/Nevada Community Action Partnership, we developed and implemented a program that uses appropriate serving sizes in classroom meals and serves these meals using family style dining. This program increases the participation of children in healthy physical activities.
