What we are About
The 6 Million SEEDS School-based project and Growing a Healthy Child are 2 facets of one combined effort to transform what we feed children in school and at home The premise is simple: Our children are our most precious resource. Children comprise the most vulnerable section of our population. They have neither autonomy nor agency, regardless of their economic situation, housing status, race, skin color, religion or national origin. While some may indeed be worse off than others, children are always at the mercy of the people and environment around them. In the United States, one of the biggest issues children face is access to genuinely healthy food that supports their growth and development, and ability to learn.
Listen On
Children are heavily influenced by the adults around them. Whether we know it or not, parents, educators, and healthcare providers majorly affect the development of our children. Every environment is a learning environment, and we truly must lead by example for the next generation. This week, we discuss acting as a positive influence for the children in our lives by breaking through multi-generational health conditions.
