Abstract:
Nutrition educators need to view tribal program cooks as important food and nutrition gatekeepers for their clients, families, and communities. They need to train these cooks using a variety of educational techniques, including culturally sensitive food preparation sessions and classroom activities to increase cooks' knowledge and skills, enhance their self-esteem, and improve their attitudes about cooking more healthfully.
