This Health and Nutrition Team is focused on improving the local food system, increasing consumption of healthy foods, and providing high quality nutrition
This page was created to promote health, wellness, and nutrition with lifestyle tips.Check out our blog- https://high5forhealthblog.wordpress.com/
Our mission is to provide Clark County residents with education and resources to empower them to make healthy choices, especially with respect to optimal nutrition.
Health and Nutrition is just one of many areas such as Agriculture, Children, Youth and Families, Community Development, Horticulture, and Natural Resources, that provide non-degree, educational programs and resources. Together, all of these areas make up the University of Nevada Cooperative Extension (UNCE) in the Southern Area, where we serve a diverse community consisting of both urban and rural communities.
