Center for Nutrition in Schools, Shaping Healthy Choices Program (UC Davis)

The Shaping Healthy Choices Program is a multi-component, school-based intervention that was developed to improve children’s health. The program integrates activities within four components: nutrition education and promotion, family and community partnerships, foods available on the school campus with an emphasis on regional agriculture, and school wellness policies.

Their website offers a cooking curriuclum, a series of webinars on menu-planning, training curriculum and a best practices guide that provides evidence-based best practices and strategies developed through the first-hand experiences of researchers and community members involved with the implementation of the program.
