Eat Wise formed at the beginning of the 2008-2009 school year when parents from Wilson Elementary, aware that children were being served reheated frozen, processed, and canned foods and routinely offered sugary items, decided to take action. This also became a moral issue when we realized that over 90% of the children in the district are on the subsidized lunch program. The only food some children will receive is from school.
Some of those same parents went on to form Eat Wise OKC, a non-profit organization dedicated to changing the health culture in the Oklahoma City Public Schools through education and advocacy. Meet the Officers and Board members.
