Let's Eat Healthy Leadership Award

The Let’s Eat Healthy Leadership Award celebrates California champions who educate, inspire and empower children, families and communities to develop lifelong healthy eating patterns. Now in its fifth year, the award program recognizes individuals, youth leaders and organizations that improve nutrition education and access to nutritious foods that include milk and dairy, fruit, vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins to make a positive difference in the health of their communities and beyond.
