Description

In collaboration with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Health Resources in Action and the National Network of Public Health Institutes developed a new toolkit titled, “Partnering with Food Service to Reduce Sodium: A Toolkit for Public Health Practitioners.” The toolkit highlights specific strategies, case studies, tools, and resources for building new and/or enhancing existing partnerships with food service providers to reduce sodium in foods prepared, served, and sold. It aims to help public health practitioners understand the context of food service settings as well as the language and drivers of food service providers to support effective partnerships. Case studies and success stories provide examples of stories from the field, aiming to inspire and generate ideas for partnerships and implementation. Tools and resources impart the experience and learnings of previous sodium reduction efforts.
