  • Mission

    To leverage the strengths of community-academic partnerships to improve nutritional behaviors and thereby reduce inequities in chronic diseases such as obesity and dental caries among pediatric populations. Our research has led to development of educational materials and toolkits, environmental changes to support healthy behaviors in schools and other community settings, and policy changes at the state and national level.
