Healthy Mind, Body, Spirit

The Maglaya Medical-Legal Missions Inc (MMLM) piloted its "Healthy body, mind, spirit" Nutrition program by providing nutritious lunch to 145 elementary students, faculty and parents of the Jesus Cares Christian Academy (JCCA) on February 17, 2017.

The success of this endeavor was largely due to fostering collaboration with the Department of Health Region I (DOH), the National Nutrition Council Region I (NNC) and the Caba District Hospital (CDH). Together, we embarked on a gargantuan and ambitious undertaking to address and hopefully, end protein energy malnutrition (PEM) and micronutrient deficiency in Caba, La Union for good!

One school at a time.

Thank you Ms. Mary Gene S. Contic (NNC-Region I) and Ms. Tiffany Penera (CDH) for your expertise and insight on good nutrition.
