Child Care Aware® of Missouri has **limited openings** in its Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services partnership Go NAPSACC project to provide you with strategies and tools to update your menus with new and exciting recipes and keep the children engaged in physical activity all year long.  

Child care centers and family child care homes have found ideas and recipes to make meals and snacks more engaging.  Children who were once picky eaters are now more adventurous and willing to try new foods.  NAPSACC has the resources to help!

*What is Go NAPSACC?*

- NAPSACC (Nutrition and Physical Activity Self-Assessment Child Care) is an online self-assessment tool created by the University of North Carolina. 
- The purpose of the project is to increase children’s physical activity and nutrition. 
- It looks at best practices for nutrition and physical activity for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers.
- The NAPSACC has seven sections. But as part of the project, we are asking you to **complete only one area**. 

*How do I get started?*

- You start by completing an area self-assessment which takes about 10-15 minutes. 
- Once you have completed the module, the website helps you set goals for your program that you can personalize. 
- You must complete two goals to complete the NAPSACC area.
- It it packed with resources and ideas for you to achieve your goals, including new recipes!
- It is a small project that does not require a lot of time but can produce large results for the children and families in your program. 

This is not something you would be working on alone. Your program will have an assigned Technical Assistance Specialist that will provide technical assistance through FaceTime, Zoom, or a similar platform.  Your TA Specialist will give your program one-on-one support to help you achieve your goals.   Once you have achieved two of your goals, you will receive a $75 Kaplan gift card. 

If you have questions, please contact Lauri Choate, Director of Wellness Initiatives at [lauri@mochildcareaware.org](mailto:lauri@mochildcareaware.org) or 314-754-1603.
