2009 Poster Challenge - Registration Information To Be Announced
Forms must be submitted no later than June 20th.
The 2008 Nutrition and Breastfeeding Conference Poster Challenge is your opportunity to show us your creative and innovative ideas. There is no theme this year. We want you to express your creative side with no limitations. Through this poster challenge you should convey a key idea, message or strategy to be used to motivate participants towards a behavior change related to nutrition, breastfeeding, physical activity or substance abuse.
Poster Ideas
• A poster with a message to help participants quit smoking
• A local agency initiative designed to combat childhood obesity
• A piece of artwork that motivates participants to breastfeed past 6 months
• A bulletin board that motivates participants to increase their activity
• A local agency lesson that motivates children to try new foods
Remember that you are not limited to the examples above. Be creative and show other agencies how you are improving the health of Texans in your clinic.
Judging
The posters will be judged on the perceived effectiveness of the behavior change idea, message or strategy presented, and the posters overall visual appeal.
