Literacy Canada
Supporting a stronger future for students across Canada
Welcome to Nutrition and Food Literacy Canada (NFLC)
We are a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering children and youth across Canada through food literacy and nutrition education. Our work focuses on helping students build confidence with food and nutrition through simple tools that support both learning and curiosity.
Upstream solutions and food justice
We focus on connecting nutrition education to broader issues like access and equity. Our programs empower youth to think critically about food systems and advocate for a more sustainable future.
Nutrition and Food Knowledge
We help students understand where food comes from, enabling them to build lifelong skills in making informed food choices at school, at home, and in their communities.
Community Engagement
We work to promote community-based solutions through events, youth-led projects, and partnerships. We hope to empower individuals and communities to take action toward a more equitable food system.
Our Mission
Our mission is to help children and youth across Canada build real confidence with food and nutrition. We support learning that feels natural, practical, and connected to everyday life.
We aim to create resources that make it easier for educators, families, and students to understand food in a way that encourages curiosity, health, and informed choices.
Through school programs and community support, we want to make food knowledge something every young person can reach with comfort and interest.
