Recipe for Success

March 20, 2019 by Jorge

Recipe for Success Foundation was launched in 2005 by Gracie & Bob 
Cavnar to lead the way in combating childhood obesity by changing the 
way children understand, appreciate and eat their food and by helping 
the community provide healthier diets for our kids. We teach 
Seed-to-Plate Nutrition Education™, which takes elementary school 
children through planting seeds to harvesting their garden and cooking 
with the food they grew!

Along the way we’ve created partnering programs such as Farmers marKIDS, 
where children learn to create & market a product based on food they’ve 
grown, and the VegOut! 30 Ways in 30 Days Challenge where we encourage 
participants to try 30 different vegetables in the span of a month. This 
challenge has been used across companies, schools, and nationally as a 
tool to raise awareness for how few vegetables we generally include in 
our diets. It’s completely free, easy to use (either by web or app), and 
makes a game of healthy eating!

  • The 8th Annual Out for Health Conference will be hosted by McGovern Medical School

    When: January 23, 2021 - 7:45 am to 5:00 pm

    https://med.uth.edu/blog/2021/01/06/mcgovern-to-host-out-for-health-conference/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Scoop_December-17-2020 

    The 8th Annual Out for Health Conference will be hosted by McGovern Medical School from 7:45 a.m. to 5 p.m. Jan. 23 via Cisco Webex.

    Out for Health is a medical conference founded and organized by students across all Texas medical schools in order to address the needs of the LGBTQIA+ population. The conference creates spaces for students, faculty, and community members to come together and discuss challenges faced by these patients. The event unites students and health professionals across disciplines to learn how to provide more inclusive health care.

    The theme of the 2021 conference is “intersectionality,” recognizing the marginalization of minority groups within the LGBTQIA+ community. By drawing parallels between the current Black Lives Matter movement and the queer liberation movement of the 1960s, and between the current COVID-19 pandemic and the AIDS epidemic, the conference strives to empower the healthcare field to identify and fight systemic discrimination on all levels.

    This year, Earl Fowlkes, chairman of the LGBT Caucus at the Democratic National Committee, will deliver the keynote speech titled “Out of the Shadows: The Intersectionality of Black LGBTQ+ Physical and Mental Health.”
