THE COORDINATION OF FOOD AND NUTRITION SERVICES

WHEREAS, The health and well being of a significant number of
Marylanders is threatened by malnutrition and poor dietary
habits; and

WHEREAS, There is considerable evidence that poor diet is a
contributing factor in the development of a number of
illnesses including cancer, hypertension and cardiovascular
disease and that as much as one-third of health care
expenditures can be attributed to poor nutrition; and

WHEREAS, There is a need to educate and provide information to
all Marylanders on the importance of good nutrition and
dietary habits; and

WHEREAS, There are four major state agencies and numerous local
public and private organizations providing approximately
$300 million of food and nutrition services; and

WHEREAS, Greater coordination among the various public and
private agencies could significantly enhance the
effectiveness of Maryland's food and nutrition services, as
well as maximize participation in Federal food programs; and

WHEREAS, There is a need to develop a comprehensive State policy
on food and nutrition services; and

NOW, THEREFORE, I, HARRY HUGHES, GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF
MARYLAND, BY VIRTUE OF THE AUTHORITY VESTED IN ME BY THE
