I founded this non-profit with the goal of developing effective teaching programs to address children’s health needs and help them live healthy, happy, and more productive lives. I develop teaching modules, instructional videos, and educational material focused on Health Education. Past successes:❖Spent 1 year on the road (visiting 41 states) conducting videotaped interviews with children from a wide range of backgrounds about their eating habits. Based in this research, I wrote the DirectionFive Teaching Manual about what children want and need to learn about nutrition. Manual was used as primary text for classes I taught on holistic health, nutrition, and cooking to grade school students within the regular curriculum and in after-school programs.
