The Pacific West MCH Distance Learning Network was developed in response to the identified training needs of maternal and child health practitioners providing nutrition services in the Pacific West Cluster and to the MCHB continuing education program priority established in maternal and child nutrition. The overall goal of the project is to develop a distance-learning network among MCHB-sponsored training programs and state Title V agencies to strengthen nutrition services for children with special health care needs and their families in Regions VII, IX and X, including Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. This series of six self-study modules is a product of the Pacific West MCH Distance Learning Network. Much of the material was previously presented at in-person training sessions and is also available as a CD-ROM with resource notebook.
