Our Mission
At SNACK, we’re working to improve the health and wellness of children & youth in Yamhill County. We provide services to 6-18 year-olds and their families to encourage lifestyle changes supporting healthy eating and active living. We believe in supporting all aspects of a child’s health and wellbeing, including physical, mental and social wellness, and strive to maintain access to our programming for all families.
What We Do
-
Nutrition Education
SNACK staff provide one-on-one nutrition lessons to participants and their families/caregivers at our program office located inside Physicians’ Medical Center in McMinnville. Each appointment is an opportunity to learn about a nutrition topic, discuss healthy habits and practice goal-setting.
-
Get Moving
SNACK partners with community organizations to support physical activity and movement opportunities throughout McMinnville. Our Events Calendar is regularly updated with opportunities for participants to engage in physical activity, learn about the benefits of physical activity, and have fun.
-
Wellness Workshops
SNACK hosts wellness workshops at various locations around McMinnville that highlight healthy living topics such as kids cooking classes, growing your own garden, and healthy habits. Each workshop is an opportunity to learn about a wellness topic in a hands on setting.
