National Child Nutrition projects

 

Overview

The National Child Nutrition Program was a 3 year community grants program targeting the nutrition and long term eating patterns of children aged 0 - 12 years of age, and pregnant women. A high priority was been given to projects in rural and remote communities, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and lower socio-economic communities. The program supported community-based projects aiming to improve: nutrition-related knowledge and skills of children and their parents; the capacity of communities to promote better nutritional health; and access to, and availability of, nutritious foods.
