The second annual “Feeding Brighter Futures Workshop” is set for Tuesday, September 16, at Southeast Arkansas College (SEARK). Community members are invited to join and help develop solutions for promoting healthy eating in local youth programs.
The free, public event will take place at McGeorge Hall, located at 1900 S. Hazel St. in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. Activities will begin at 10:30 a.m. and conclude at 12:30 p.m.
“Feeding Brighter Futures is designed to inspire future leaders in nutrition, food science and wellness,” Dr. Kimberly Haynie, associate professor of nutrition and food science at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff, said. “Anyone who wants to make a positive impact on our community’s health and wellbeing is encouraged to attend. It is also a chance to participate in hands-on professional development activities that will enhance your resume.”
The project is funded by a grant from the 1890 Center for Excellence for Nutrition, Health, Wellness and Quality of Life. For more information about the event, contact Dr. Haynie at [email protected].
