Kids Eat Right

Kids Eat Right is the first joint initiative from the American Dietetic Association and American Dietetic Association Foundation that supports the efforts of the White House to end the childhood obesity epidemic within a generation.

Kids Eat Right is a two-tiered campaign — with components for the general public and for ADA member registered dietitians — with the goal of educating families, communities, and policy makers about the importance of good nutrition.

Kids Eat Right focuses on three main objectives:

·         EDUCATE children, families, communities and policy makers on the importance of high-quality, nutritional foods in childhood obesity prevention efforts.

• ADVOCATE on behalf of a quality nutrition approach to promote growth and development.

• DEMONSTRATE the food and nutrition expertise of registered dietitians through educational programming and advocacy.
