Balanced

About

Balanced is a nutrition security and public-health nonprofit. We help schools, hospitals, universities, child-care centers, and workplaces make healthy eating the easy, everyday choice. We enhance institutional food environments by shifting menus toward fiber-rich, health-promoting foods and away from items high in saturated fat, cholesterol, sodium, and ultra-processed ingredients.  Through free, community-led advocacy support—comprising toolkits, coaching, and custom campaign assets—we empower local leaders to run successful healthy-menu campaigns. And with hands-on services for food-service teams such as menu analysis, recipe/menu design, procurement help, marketing, and nutrition consultation, we make change doable in busy kitchens. Guided by evidence-based nutrition science and a growing network of advocates, our programs are influencing policy and practice in cities worldwide and improving the healthfulness of millions of meals each year.
