The program will take place once every other month in each working sector during some workers’ one hour lunch break, while other government workers (e.g. teachers) will stay after work for a maximum of one and a half hours to participate in the education and demonstration session. Each session will consist of a lesson which will change month-to-month, for example: vegetables for January then meat and meat substitutes for March, or protein for May then fats for July. In order to meet all the requirements and demand of the program, a team of experts will host each meeting. This team will consist of either one registered dietitian or nutrition consultant and a group of nutrition student volunteers enrolled at a local college (university or community).

These meals will represent healthy foods that government employees can afford, will have the time to cook, and contribute significant nutritional…
