Child Nutrition

Improving childhood nutrition and wellness is something that New England Dairy & Food Council and the National Dairy Council take very seriously.  In response to the health crisis among American youth, National Dairy Council partnered with NFL to launch Fuel Up to Play 60, a program that empowers youth to take action to improve nutrition and physical activity at their school and for their health.  United States Department of Agriculture has joined the effort, and multiple health and nutrition organizations and several major corporations have offered additional support. 

These materials provide the latest information about the Fuel Up to Play 60 program, more information on how to get involved and valuable resources you can use to help make a difference.
