National Nutrition Month
March is National Nutrition Month® (NNM)! The California Department of Social Services (CDSS) invites CACFP operators to celebrate this nutrition education and information campaign sponsored annually by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. This year’s NNM® theme is Beyond the Table, drawing attention to the importance of establishing healthy eating routines, home food safety, and eating with the environment in mind. We hope all CACFP operators, providers, families, and participants to celebrate with us!
