Background The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is a federally funded child nutrition program that provides low-income children with free, nutritious meals during summer and holiday breaks. Schools operating on a year-round academic calendar also use the SFSP to offer meals during off-track periods. During the school year, 15.3 million U.S. children rely on free or reduced-price school meals to meet their daily nutritional needs. When the school doors close for vacation, these children can be left without a reliable source of food. The SFSP is designed to fill this gap, providing a third of the recommended daily allowance of key nutrients. The SFSP served more than 2.2 million children at over 29,000 sites nationwide in 1998, and in California it served an average of 185,689 children each day. Though California increased usage of the SFSP by 55.6 percent between 1990 and 1999, the SFSP remains severely underutilized. Nationwide, approximately 16 percent of children who were enrolled in free and reduced-price lunch programs during the school year also participated in the SFSP;

After a clinical evaluation and assessment of your health history, Dr. Thompson creates a personalized health program for you and/or your family. This consists of a precise, yet flexible, arrangement of foods, food supplements, and suggestions for vital therapies and lifestyle habits that result in allowing the normal functioning of the body to take place. When this balance is achieved, health vitality and well-being are the result, and sickness and disease are dismissed. Why is this so important? We are creatures of habit. Our habits determine our levels of health and well-being and these, in turn, determine the quality and length of our lives. Knowing the differences between habits that are beneficial to health, habits that are offending, and why , are the most important things you and your children will ever learn.

The workplace statistics alone are stark: Every day an average of 9,000 U.S. workers sustain disabling injuries on the job, 16 workers die from a workplace injury, and another 137 die from work-related illness. That’s nearly 56,000 lives lost annually, and more than three million disabling work injuries each year, costing an estimated $171 billion annually in direct and indirect costs. Still, the U.S. lacks health care professionals with expertise in occupational and environmental health. COEH helps address this shortage by training occupational and environmental health specialists for careers in industry, universities, and government.

L.A. Farmers' Markets Go High-Tech to Promote Fruit and Vegetable Consumption LOS ANGELES-.-04/28/2004 Addition of Food Stamp's EBT at L.A. County Certified Farmers' Markets Improves Access for Recipients of Food Assistance A consortium of Los Angeles County certified farmers' markets announced today that 22 farmers' markets throughout L.A. County will begin accepting Food Stamp Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) cards, also known as the Golden State Advantage Card, as a convenient method of payment. The effort is part of a statewide campaign to improve health through nutrition education and lifestyle changes, particularly among socioeconomic and ethnic groups that suffer disproportionate rates of hunger, obesity and chronic disease. "We know that families in poor neighborhoods throughout L.A. County often have trouble buying fresh fruits and vegetables because of a lack of grocery stores," said Pompea Smith, CEO of Sustainable Economic Enterprises-Los Angeles and director of the Hollywood Farmers' Market. "Most farmers' markets have traditionally accepted food stamps, but this new technology presented a unique challenge to the cash-only markets, which lack access to electricity and phone lines. Overcoming this obstacle, with the help of state and county Departments of Social Services and community advocates, allows markets to continue the work of providing fresh fruits and vegetables to all income levels."
