The Smart Meal restaurant program was developed with the following goals in mind:
- Provide healthier menu options for customers
- Provide education and awareness of Smart Meal qualifications
- Encourage customers to make healthier choices
- Increase the consumption of fruits and vegetables
We encourage other organizations, government entities and restaurants to join us in this effort. A free training program has been created for public health entities and agencies who wish to implement the Smart Meal program. In order to participate in the training program and have access to the training site, the organization must submit a request to the program manager. Go to the Contact page and fill out the form. In the "message" box, state, "we are interested in the Smart Meal training program."
