Good Food For Life
Supporting dietary change in young survivors of breast cancer

Good Food for Life is a program for young survivors of breast cancer diagnosed prior to menopause and finished treatment within the last three years. The program supports lifelong dietary changes because eating a healthy diet, high in fruits and vegetables, is universally accepted as being beneficial to overall health and wellness.

Participants are encouraged and supported to make and sustain self-directed changes to their diet. When good food is associated with nurturance we are motivated to eat well.

The Good Food for Life program offers young breast cancer survivors an opportunity to attend workshops on healthy cooking and to receive the FoodShare Wellness Box--both at no cost.

The program will also offer social and interactive hands-on food skills; personal reflection and mindful eating; the opportunity to be connected to local food sources; and interactive discussions about key issues related to food and the environment.

For more info on topics covered, see the FoodShare website.
