School nutrition professionals focus on the nutrition and health of their students everyday. With a little help from JSI, they also discovered how to improve their personal nutrition and overall wellness. This school year, JSI has provided Employee Wellness Trainings at SNA of Mass Chapter Meetings across the Commonwealth. This training aligns with the strategic plan for the School Nutrition Association.
JSI recently led the SNA of Mass Chapter 3 Employee Wellness Training held at the newly renovated Tewksbury High School on March 12.
JSI presenter Anna Tourkakis led the large group of professionals from Billerica, Reading, Tewksbury, Medford, N.Reading and Pentucket, and provided the school nutrition professionals with terrific wellness resources such as the 10 tips to a great plate, 10 tips to help you eat more vegetables, and the USDA SuperTracker to help plan, analyze, and track your diet and physical activity.
SNA offers the STEPS Challenge, a wellness program created for school nutrition professionals. It provides the resources and inspiration to help SNA members live healthier, one step at a time. The Challenge is designed to make better health and wellness simple, fun, and attainable. You can sign up for and find out more about the STEPS Challenge HERE!
