Nutrition is foundational to wellness, and community-based care presents an opportunity to promote healthy eating habits in an inclusive, accessible way. Sharing meals through community potlucks, nutrition classes, or food co-ops can encourage diverse dietary practices that respect cultural preferences while emphasizing whole foods, fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins. Cooking demonstrations and recipe swaps foster engagement and learning. For individuals with dietary restrictions, peer support can help navigate food choices in a positive, social setting. Partnerships with local farms or food banks can also expand access to fresh, affordable ingredients.
