OPERATION FRONTLINE

 

Operation Frontline is a nutrition education program that fights childhood hunger by teaching families how to make healthy and budget-wise food choices. With six different courses that target adults, teens and children, Operation Frontline takes a cooking-centered approach to nutrition education. It brings children and adults in touch with food and health in a long-lasting manner.

Chefs and nutritionists volunteer to teach classes that feature:

  • Hands-on meal preparation

  • Basic nutrition

  • Food safety

  • Menu planning

  • Food budgeting

  • Healthy snacking

One of our new volunteers who shadowed a class last week blogged about her experience  - check it out!

 

This program will debut in January 2010
