On Tuesday March 8th, the Food Systems Network of NYC has invited Chef Tim to present on a panel of Nationally Reknowned School Meal Experts to discuss the proposed USDA standards for school meals that were introduced on January 13th. The seminar will begin with a tour of La Marqueta, the recently renovated market space in East Harlem, which houses the newly opened kitchen incubator run by Hot Bread Kitchen.
The USDA proposal requires school meal standards, which would add more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fat-free and low-fat milk to school meals, and are based on the most recent Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommendations. Schools would also be required to limit the levels of saturated fat, sodium, calories, and trans fats in meals. The panel will discuss the possibilities for improved meal quality for our public school students.
Our speakers will be:
Amie Hamlin, Executive Director, New York City Coalition for Healthy School Food
Laura Stanley, Learning Lab Manager, School Food FOCUS
Timothy Cipriano, Executive Director, Food Services for New Haven Public Schools
Moderated by Jenny Dirksen, Northeast Director, Share our Strength.
Please join us to learn more about the proposed standards and their impact on school meals.

Feeding CT Kids Together
On Wednesday, January 19th, three (3) Connecticut organizations, the Connecticut Dietetics Association, End Hunger CT!, and the School Nutrition Association of CT will band together to talk about Child Nutrition with our legislators in Hartford.
This breakfast meeting is for Child Nutrition Professionals in CT is an opportunity to come to the Legislative Office Building next to the State Capitol and find out how you can help CT's legislators understand child nutrition programs. Talking points and first timer tips will be provided.
This is a great opportunity to show Hartford that Child Nutrition needs to be a priortity in our state. In New Haven, CT over 80% of our children qualify for free & reduced meals; 1 in 4 children lack access
to nutritious meals. The meals we serve in our schools, for some children are the ONLY meals of the day.
Childhood Obesity and Childhood Hunger go hand in hand. The Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act that the President just signed into law last week has a new competitive grant process for states to carry out strategies to end childhood hunger. CT needs to lead the way in this mission so we will begin to see a decrease in hunger & obesity related issues in our schools. Our kids aren’t hungry because we lack food or because of a lack of food and nutrition programs. They are hungry because they lack ACCESS to these programs and to the nutritious food they need to grow and thrive!

In Connecticut:
- 1 in 3 eligible students participate in School Breakfast programs, these numbers are some of the lowest in the country. Increase in breakfast participation gets the students ready for the day, alert and ready to learn. Something as simple as Breakfast, will improve overall education in our schools.
- 1 in 4 eligible children participate in summer meals programs. In a press release from June 2010, Lucy Nolan, Executive Director from End Hunger CT! stated, the gap is one clear measure of the depth of summer hunger in Connecticut. It is a measure as well of how the state is failing to draw down available federal funds. If the state were to reach just 40 children with summer food for every 100 low-income children who get school lunch during the regular school year, a goal some other states reach, Connecticut would have fed almost 20,000 more children every day in July 2009 and brought in $1.35 million more federal dollars to do so.
