This webinar will teach newcomer service providers about nutrition amid trauma and displacement. Leah’s Pantry specializes in trauma-informed nutrition education that builds and implements community nutrition and food security programs. In this webinar, we will discuss how good and bad experiences affect our food choices. We will also explore the principles of a trauma-informed approach to nutrition security and ways to teach about healthy eating that respect diverse cultures and the unique experiences of newcomers. Participants will be encouraged to reflect on their own relationship with food and how that can affect teaching newcomers about eating well.
