Your support is greatly appreciated!
Here's a small sampling of some of our accomplishments and outreach this
year:
-
VRG's Nutrition Advisor, Reed Mangels, PhD, RD, was a guest lecturer
on vegetarian and vegan infants and children for an online graduate
course at Nova Southeastern University. She also did a presentation
on vegan pregnancy for a Vegan Children talk at the Portland VegFest
in Oregon. Reed and Catherine Conway, MS, RD, spoke to hundreds of
health professionals at the VRG booth during the American Academy of
Nutrition and Dietetics FNCE Conference in Washington, DC.
-
We continue to work with numerous High School and College interns in
our Baltimore office including future vegan Registered Dietitians.
VRG Nutrition Advisor Reed Mangels, PhD, RD, mentors those interns
who are interested in pursuing a career in nutrition. VRG staff also
works with students that are majoring in Journalism, Business, etc.
Among their tasks are staffing VRG booths throughout the USA,
preparing vegan meals for homeless individuals, reviewing new vegan
products (someone has to do that tough job!), writing up entries for
our online restaurant guide, reviewing scientific studies on vegan
diets, plus so much more. These students are the future of the vegan
movement and we should all be excited about what they will bring to
the cause once they graduate.
-
VRG assisted media (print, web, radio, tv, etc.). VRG's Nutrition
Advisor, Reed Mangels, PhD, RD, did an interview on vegan kids for
Now This Food; was interviewed by Veggie Fit Kids website; and was
interviewed on KMUZ 88.5/100.7 FM (Nu Health Nation) about vegan
diets for diabetes, pregnancy, older adults, and athletes. VRG
Nutrition Advisor Reed Mangels PhD, RD, was interviewed for The New
York Times Well Family section on how parents can handle a situation
where just one of their children has decided to become a vegetarian
in a family of meat eaters, as well as contributed information for a
slide show on vegan and vegetarian pregnancy for US News and World
Report.
-
A medical center in Ohio asked to reprint The Vegetarian Resource
Group's My Vegan Plate in their diet education materials. VRG's
Parents/Kids Facebook Group continues to be an active supportive
arena for veggie parents and kids. To join the discussion, see:
