Child Nutrition Toolkit

Improving childhood wellness and nutrition is something that New England Dairy & Food Council and the National Dairy Council take very seriously. As such, we would like to share our new Child Nutrition Toolkit. This toolkit contains a variety of resources to help battle childhood obesity and can be used by pediatricians, dietitians, school professionals and parents alike!
