Student Nutrition Program

Student Nutrition Program

The Student Nutrition Program’s objective is to ensure that all children attend school well-nourished and ready to learn.

Community Living North Bay administers provincial funding to schools to support the development and implementation of healthy breakfasts, morning meals or snacks.  The Ontario Student Nutrition Program provides many benefits to students, schools and communities, including but not limited to: students having better concentration, being more alert and developing healthy eating habits; improved student behaviour that allows teachers to devote more time to educating; and positive social and community cooperation are demonstrated and fostered through the program.

We work to provide safe environments, free of judgement, in which children and youth can develop healthy eating habits that will last a lifetime. Our programs take a universal approach, and serve all children in the region regardless of socio-economic status.
