CoMission for Child Nutrition - Vision and Goals
Great strides are being made in child nutrition in the US, but we face the challenge of how to educate and provide millions of Americans with practical solutions for a path to healthy eating. Many companies and organizations are doing this well, but no group is currently bringing all of the excellent information on products, educational materials and training events together to make this easily available.
Millions of parents already know how their families should be eating, but we need to meet them halfway, to give them practical solutions for their families’ busy lives. By cataloging and making this information available online, we enable parents to more easily find what they need to help their kids eat well. To do this effectively, the child nutrition movement needed a vehicle that would allow the sharing of information on resources, events and support organizations online. Our partners at the CoMission for Children at Risk have been developing a cutting-edge system specifically designed to bring together the knowledge and experience of hundreds of organizations and individuals, and then make that information easily available to those who need it. Based on the technology used for www.orphancareresources.org, The CoMission for Child Nutrition is establishing an online organization, resource and event directory to bring together the knowledge and experience of hundreds of organizations, companies and individuals, and then make that information easily available to moms to empower their families for healthy eating.
