McCutcheon Parents (and Kids!) Dig In Parents and children participated in the RD Parent Empowerment program at McCutcheon Elementary . Registered Dietitian, Carolyn Tampe, led workshops helping parents learn to shop smart, cook healthy, and eat right. Parents and children especially enjoyed the hands -on cooking and tasting activities.

Mary Crane Head Start parents are empowered with the new skills they learned from Registered Dietitian, Soraya Valencia. As parents begin to make healthy changes in their own lifestyle, they are able to improve the familys nutrition and physical activity lifestyle, and then can help empower their peers to do the same.
