October 7, 20011 -- In April 2011, the School Nutrition Foundation (SNF) launched Peer2Peer Connect, a new education and networking resource that connects SNA members and non-members via conference call and allows for real-time interaction and discussion of key issues affecting school nutrition programs. Designed especially for directors, area supervisors and managers, the goal of these FREE conference calls is to provide ample opportunity for members to share resources, ideas and strategies.

SNF is excited to announce the return of the Peer2Peer Connect conference call series for fall 2011:

• Tuesday, Oct. 18th: in partnership with USDA FNS Office of Food Safety, a Peer2Peer Connect Q & A Session on Applying Good Agricultural Practices (GAPs) to Farm-to-School and School Gardens, continuing the dialogue from the Oct. 12th webinar.
• Tuesday, Oct. 25th: in partnership with the Milk Processor Education Program (MilkPEP), a Peer2Peer Connect Q & A Session on Flavored Milk, continuing the dialogue from the Sep. 14th webinar, “Rethink the Drink: The Health Impact of Student Beverage Choices.”
