Clear Benefits of a School Nutrition Program
In this episode, we speak with Stephanie Segave-Tiessen. Stephanie is a creative community leader with over two decades of experience working in the not-for-profit sector. She is currently working as a Project Manager with United Way Windsor-Essex Chatham-Kent, leading an innovative West Windsor School Lunch Pilot Program. She has been a passionate advocate for children and community issues and was directly involved in advancing advocacy work for a national school meal program. As a mom of three boys, her favourite spot to be is at local hockey arenas and soccer fields. This episode looks at the benefits to students when there is equitable access to lunches through a school nutrition program, including a positive association between nutrition and learning, reducing school absenteeism, and encouraging prosocial behaviours. Canada’s recent commitment to a National Food Policy and a $1 billion investment over 5 years is a step in the right direction but not yet a reality for Ontario. Stephanie shares how our region is contributing to realizing this goal and other innovative projects and partnerships that are underway. Stephanie invites everyone to get involved by visiting https://www.healthyschoolfood.ca/. Here, The Coalition for Healthy School Food details the actions that individuals can take.
