Dietary guidance workshop helps tribal program cooks make changes.
Nutrition educators need to view tribal program cooks as important food and nutrition gatekeepers for their clients, families, and communities. They need to train these cooks using a variety of educational techniques, including culturally sensitive food preparation sessions and classroom activities to increase cooks' knowledge and skills, enhance their self-esteem, and improve their attitudes about cooking more healthfully.
