Hello OPHA Health Education & Promotion section members! I hope you can
join us for our next meeting. We will have an excellent guest speaker
joining us. Dana Sturtevant, dietitian and trainer in Motivational
Interviewing, will discuss Ellyn Satter's approach to working with
families around food/weight concerns: Provide, don't deprive, then trust
your child to grow up to be the size and shape that is right for him or
her. See Dana Sturtevant's bio and the learning objectives for her
presentation below. 

What: A Child's Weight:  How to Help without Harming
When: Thursday, July 14th, 2:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Where: Portland State Office Building (PSOB)
800 NE Oregon St, Room #1E 
Portland, 97232

Or by phone: call 866-680-0993 and enter Pass code 793800

Participants will:
·         Review the two major causes of child overweight from Satter's
perspective: 1) misinterpreting a child's normal size and shape and
labeling it overweight and 2) imposing food restriction
·         Learn strategies to work with families, including the
division of responsibility with regards to feeding and activity
·         Identify practical ways to create an atmosphere for honest
and constructive discussions with families about health behavior change

About the presenter:
Dana Sturtevant, MS, RD is a registered dietitian, Kripalu yoga teacher
and trainer in Motivational Interviewing with extensive experience using
a non-diet, health at every size approach to help individuals let go of
food/weight obsession to heal relationship with food and reach a
natural, healthy weight. Dana works with patients using awareness
practice and conscious eating guidelines as the foundation for a more
enjoyable eating experience.  She shares her private practice, Be
