Got Soy Milk?: Inside El Monte Union’s New Dietary Inclusion Council

Arroyo High School senior Emily Lin and El Monte Union Director of Nutrition Services Suzy Sayre discuss Lin’s advocacy for plant-based meals and beverages throughout the District, including the recently-approved Dietary Inclusion Council, a student-led advisory board that will work with Nutrition Services to develop vegetarian and vegan meals, Lin’s trip to Washington D.C. to advocate for the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act, and Lin’s work with Friends of the Earth, which led to a $4,000 microgrant to support the Dietary Inclusion Council.
