Nutritional Policy

Our goal is to educate and support our clients and our community in making balanced, healthy choices.  Using the federal MyPlate guidelines, we acquire, purchase, and distribute healthy food. Education is a key aspect of this goal, which encourages individuals to make choices appropriate for their specific circumstances. Our nutritional approach is a long term commitment that we expect to evolve over time. Ultimately, we strive to go beyond filling bellies and instead nourish healthy, productive lives.
