Hello everyone:
After many months off list I just reactivated my membership. I am a
nutritionist with a strong interest in breastfeeding. For a project I am
currently working on I am looking for feedback from some listmembers.
We are developing "Nutrition Guidelines for Homeless Family Facilities"
to enable organizations involved with helping homeless families to
assess their roles and performance in this area. The guidelines are
policy focused and cover many nutrition issues for pregnant and
parenting women, including breastfeeding.
They are a tool for shelters to help identify what works and focus on
areas that may need improvement.
The current draft of the nutrition guidelines was created based on
1. An extensive literature search on shelter nutrition policies;
2. The results of several surveys, including one of shelter providers;
3. Identified "Best Practices" as currently employed by some shelters.
I am looking for a few experts from this list who would be interested in
reviewing this document (~4 pages) and specifically the guidelines that
pertain to breastfeeding. We are interested in your comments and
feedback.
Please respond to me off-list if you are interested and we will mail
and/or email you the draft for your review. Please specify whether you
wish to receive the document in Wordperfect, MS-Word, or ASCI text
formats.
thanks,
Josefine (José) Wendel, MS, RD
