Policy Changes For A Nutrition Education Program In Maine: Issues And Implications, Alan Majka, Janet C. Fairman, Kathryn Yerxa Jan 2013

Policy Changes For A Nutrition Education Program In Maine: Issues And Implications, Alan Majka, Janet C. Fairman, Kathryn Yerxa

Maine Policy Review

Food insecurity and preventable chronic disease have profound impacts on quality of life and health care costs in Maine. Many government programs have been developed to address these issues; however, effectiveness has often been limited by restrictive policies and less than optimal coordination. In this paper the authors draw upon their research and experiences in Maine, research conducted by others, and state and national statistics to elucidate some of these programs, including their efficacy, limitations, potential and threats to their sustainability. The authors contend that recent federal rule changes allow for greater impact through implementation of evidence-based strategies at the …

The Politics Of Justice: Navigating The Waters Between Legal Efficacy And Racial Profiling In The State Of Maine, Joseph G.E. Gousse Jan 2012

The Politics Of Justice: Navigating The Waters Between Legal Efficacy And Racial Profiling In The State Of Maine, Joseph G.E. Gousse

All Theses And Dissertations
