Nutrition Education for Adults & Families
Whether you are caring for yourself or your entire family, nutrition and access to healthy, affordable foods is the foundation for a thriving, successful life. Adulthood is a time when independence and new responsibilities emerge. Decisions around living situations, financials, advocating for oneself, caring for a family and unknown stressors are just a few of the responsibilities young families and adults take on all at once. Proper nutrition helps maintain stability with mood, hormones and stress. It also provides parents with the opportunity to set an example for their children by making healthy food choices.
