Working Towards a Sustainable Hunger Free World

 

Connect Nutrition was founded to address the need for unique and innovative solutions to solve the problems of inadequate nutrition, hunger, and food insecurity. We do this by assisting local, national, and international non-profit/non-governmental organizations, government agencies, small businesses, and community groups in all aspects of  program design, evaluation, training and management, policy analysis and development, and advocacy in the areas of food security, community development, sustainable food system assessment and development, and poverty alleviation. Connect Nutrition's consultants work with our clients to create nutrition programs meeting the needs of families and communities, particularly under-served populations.
