Promoting Better Nutrition Among Poor Children
A 25 page expansion of a 20-page paper with the same name. This one expands on the literature review and adds a specific program lesson plan. The focus targets families in West Harlem, New York, with children under five years old for the purpose of educating parents in better nutrition thus improving children's nutrition. Other objectives include providing parents with workable techniques; build a sense of empowerment among participants; positively affect long-term health by avoiding/reducing obesity and avoiding its complications; and have fun in the process. The health promotion education and intervention program is designed to increase poor mothers' awareness of the nutritional content of common foods; lead them to make better choices for food for their families; and provide them with workable, useable techniques to alter their families' eating habits. The long-range goal of the program is to reduce obesity rates, improve nutrition and to establish healthy eating patterns that will persist into adulthood and throughout children's full adult lives. Bibliography lists 35 sources.
