[Ailist] healthy eating strategies

[Judith Light]

Hello Kate
I am working with the state of Missouri/Federal govt on health care
issues. I turned up this announcement.  I recommend the website
www.rwjf.org (Robert Wood Johnson Foundation) for more information on
other programs.
I'll keep you in mind as I continue research.
Regards, Judith
