Our office provides nutrition education workshops, works with community partners to help make the healthier choice the easier choice, and provides recipes, handouts, videos and other free resources for anyone to access. Our nutrition education efforts are delivered across the state, but mostly in the core cities of Providence, Pawtucket, Central Falls, and Woonsocket. Let’s learn more! Direct Education Throughout Rhode Island we offer nutrition education workshops. The workshops focus on culturally-relevant healthy eating and physical activity within a limited budget.
