Introduction

Welcome to the Nutrition Program Research Guide!

This guide is intended to describe and provide access to resources and services in support of the Nutrition program's objectives to "facilitate change in individuals and communities through strategies for modifying personal food choices, food access, food policy, and the food system within which food choices are made to ensure healthy people in healthy and sustainable communities."
