The CMA Foundation's Obesity Prevention Project has published a brochure to help health care providers get their Medi-Cal patients involved in the Food Stamp Program to promote healthy eating and living. The brochure describes the link between a well-rounded diet and health, and provides information on local food stamp nutrition education programs for patients.

This brochure was produced in partnership with the California Department of Public Health and the United States Department of Agriculture's Food Stamp Program.
