The Mt. SAC Nutrition and Food Education Program provides individuals,
families, and community members with the knowledge and skills to make
informed choices about healthful diets, to reduce risks of foodborne
illness and chronic disease, and to efficiently manage food resources
that support their physiological health and economic and social well-being.

- Prepare students for careers in Nutrition and Dietetics by increasing understanding of the field and by offering networking opportunities, through meetings and forums, partnering with industry, staff development, mentoring, and alumni involvement.
- Achieve adequate and stable faculty and lab assistant staffing levels to ensure an exemplary NF program that supports students' personal and career goals.
- Ensure optimal equipment and allocation of classroom and lab space that meets the needs of the NF and HRM programs, both in the current building (19B) and in the future Business Division building.
- Secure additional funding for nutrition and foods courses to enhance student learning.
- Develop courses across the curriculum to support or encourage interaction with other programs (e.g., HRM) or other disciplines (e.g., Child Development or Physical Education).
