ABOUT SNEAKER© Project

(Super Nutrition Education for All Kids to Eat Right)  

The SNEAKER© Project is a nutrition education program designed to provide culturally sensitive education information specific to English, Spanish and Chinese speaking children and their families in New York City.

From 2003 to 2005, Hospital for Special Surgery conducted several SNEAKER© Programs at elementary schools, community centers and not-for-profit organizations, reaching over 2,000 New York City Children. Throughout it all, the mission of the SNEAKER© Project was to re-inforce the following nutrition information:

  • To appreciate the importance of calcium intake and the various forms of calcium
  • To understand the value of consuming whole grain and other high fiber foods
  • To recognize the perceived versus real amounts of sugar hidden in certain foods and beverages
  • To learn the definition of portion control and understand portion sizes
  • To identify healthy food options for the school cafeteria, fast food restaurants and home

For program information, please contact Robyn Wiesel, CHES 212.774.7326.
