Since federal waivers for meals at no cost have expired, many states
have taken legislative and non-legislative measures to ensure children
continue to benefit from healthy school meals. Every state is different
and the strategies that succeed in one may not work in another. In this
session, 5 seasoned school nutrition advocates from California,
Colorado, Maine, Maryland and Pennsylvania will share lessons learned in
their communities. They will discuss how to design an effective
advocacy strategy, relationship and coalition building, how to craft
legislative language and how to leverage your advocacy efforts when the
response is not what you expected.
