Present Activities/Projects
To achieve our goals, BANPAC has created three committees that meet regularly and direct many activities. These include:
 
  • School Wellness Committee: Supports the development of necessary nutrition education resources to support the adoption of policies and programs that promote healthy eating and physical activity to students.
  • Food Access/Food Security Committee: Supports access to nutritious food for low-income people through collaboration among related-service providers such as food stamp offices and food banks, development of forums for sharing successful models, and creation of a resource guide.
  • Community Environment Committee: Educates and supports communities, especially food stamp-eligible populations, on nutrition and obesity prevention issues and empowers them to take action to promote environmental changes that address these issues.
Committee Work Plans
