I had a wonderful visit at a Head Start program in Alexandria, Virginia today. As we celebrate National Nutrition Month, @HHSGov is reinforcing its commitment to Make America Healthy Again by prioritizing healthy eating and nutrition for Head Start grantees. We are encouraging programs to switch from low-fat dairy – which the antiquated Dietary Guidelines require them to promote – to full fat/whole milk.
Our early experiences and exposures, including responsive relationships with caregivers, shape the architecture of our brain. While new connections in the brain can form throughout life, the first years are critical for establishing a healthy foundation: https://t.co/etebzml6x1
By working together across sectors to implement policies and programs that support children and caregivers, we can help children develop resilience. Learn more here: https://t.co/37iJJC7I05
