We'd love to have you in the Implementation of Nutrition and Physical Activity Interventions and Tools session to hear about #impsci in #ECE 😀 @taren_swindle

[Courtney Luecking @ctluecking]

It's the most wonderful time of the year! #DIScience20 Missing the in-person connection with #impsci friends but looking forward to having more time to digest all the content from rock stars in the field

I asked: When the time comes, what would you like to be remembered for?
"Someone who used whatever talent she had to do her work to the very best of her ability. And to help repair tears in her society, to make things a little better through the use of whatever ability she has."

Parent engagement in #ECE is a must for healthy development. But it can be hard. Our new paper identified barriers and facilitators of engagement with a #nutrition and #physicalactivity intervention. #impsci https://t.co/N0l5LTTXlb @DianneSWard @unc_hpdp @ukydhn @UKAgriculture

Food insecurity may be the next pandemic resulting from #COVID19. Disparities in health, social status & food security seem to travel together & it may be difficult to reduce health disparities without addressing socioeconomic disparities. @ConscienHealth

Our new article in #JAND shows children consumed higher quality food at #ECE centers than elsewhere. Bite by bite we
can work to improve children's #nutrition in all settings. https://t.co/NNhWiPH7kE #nationalnutritionmonth @stephmazzucca @DianneSWard @uncchwrg @NutritionUNC

[Courtney Luecking @ctluecking]

So excited to have @DianneSWard at @ukydhn and @UKAgriculture to talk about the influence of #ECE on children’s #nutrition and #PhysicalActivity and @gonapsacc as an evidence-based process to facilitate change.

[Courtney Luecking @ctluecking]

So thankful for the graceful mentorship and guidance from @DianneSWard @byron_powell Deb Tate, Alice Ammerman, and Kimberly Truesdale @NutritionUNC who ushered me through linking #nutrition and #ECE with #impsci
