Men and women, their current role in the family--as bread winners and caregivers--influence what they and their children eat. Five perspectives of how gender and employment status influence family food choice will be presented. These influences are often steeped in cultural backgrounds and social economic status of the parents. New strategies of food procurement and healthy eating emerge as immigrants and families with little time provide meals for their family members. | |||
Learning Objectives: 1. At the completion of this session, participants will be able to describe the roles that both women and men play within the family that influence food selection. 2. At the completion of this session, participants will be able to describe and consider the role of work and income on food procurement, especially among low-income families. | |||
