Fondation Olo and community organizations: Working together to help families build healthy eating habits


We offer you resources and tools to enrich your activities on nutrition, to encourage young children and their families to adopt better eating habits.

 

Who is this for?

All Quebec organizations working with families:

  • Family resource centres
  • Perinatal resource centres
  • Collective kitchens
  • Birthing centres
  • Educational and drop-in childcare centres
  • Breastfeeding organizations
  • Community centres and libraries
  • Food banks
  • Other organizations working in the area of nutrition with families and with children in their first 1000 days (pregnancy to age 2)

 

Since you work closely with families and have trusting relationships with them, you are the ideal people to help parents and children learn better eating habits, one step at a time.

Fondation Olo can support you in your work, thanks to tools and resources that revolve around 3 simple behaviours to develop: eating well, cooking and having family meals as a family. Our goal is to make you more comfortable and confident when answering parents’ questions about feeding their babies, when guiding them in their parenting role, and when providing tools, resources and tips.

 

 

Why collaborate with Fondation Olo?

  • To contribute to improving eating habits in all families across Quebec
  • To enhance your knowledge and actions, so you can better support your families
  • To be part of a network of professionals, practitioners and community workers who are pursuing the same goals
  • To support the initiatives on healthy eating (or food security) that you coordinate with your partners, and particularly with the health and social services network
