The Physical Activity, Nutrition, and Food Access committee has a School Nutrition workgroup that focuses on supporting Durham Public Schools Nutrition. The workgroup does this by developing content around nutritional facts of school meals, availability of free and reduced price meals, and sites where meals are available. The group has also led the Partnership to purchase items for Durham Public Schools nutrition like cooler bags and meal pick-up site signs in English and Spanish. This workgroup is also working on advocacy strategies to expand free meals for school children.

The workgroup serves students, and parents of students, who attend Durham Public Schools. The workgroup has also showed apprection and support for Durham Public Schools Nutritioni staff. 

The impact of this work is increased use of school meals that leads to an improved school nutrition system. The coolers donated allowed school nutrition to deliver meals at safe temperatures throughout COVID to satelite locations and classrooms. The documents produced by the workgroup are distributed throughout Durham to ensure that families are aware of changes in nutrition and how to access assistance.
