Please pardon the cross posting.

Dear colleagues,

I am pleased to let you know that our 1999-2000 annual report for the 
University of Connecticut Family Nutrition Program for Infants, 
Toddlers, and Children (FNP-IT) is now available at the FNP-IT website: 
{ HYPERLINK http://www.hispanichealth.com/pana.htm }www.hispanichealth.com/pana.htm. 
To find it simply press the Annual Report button. This past fiscal year we delivered 
high quality food safety, food access and nutrition education to thousands of food stamp 
recipients through mass media and school based education. 

In addition, we continued with our evaluations and facilitated a number 
of research projects to better understand the community nutrition 
problems in the communities that we serve. You can access our list of 
publications and past and upcoming presentations by pressing the 
Research & Evaluation button in the website. We hope to see you at 
our session on Nutrition and Food Safety among Latinos: Issues for the 
New Millenium in APHA in Boston on Tuesday, Nov 14 (2:30 to 4 pm)   
http://apha.confex.com/apha/128am/techprogram/session_3479.htm

We also encourage you to check out our bilingual and bicultural 
nutrition education products developed by FNP-IT. Simply press the 
Materials Developed product in the FNP-IT website.

We are looking forward to our continuing interactions with all of you.

Sincerely,
