Breaking Bread, Nourishing Connections: People with and without Disabilities Together at Mealtime

Author: Karin Melberg Schwier

Mealtimes are about much more than eating. When we share a meal, we're enjoying the company of others, participating in a meaningful social ritual, and nourishing human connections. But sometimes, people with disabilities miss out on these essential aspects of dining-and that's where this warm, engaging guidebook comes in.

Developed by authors with extensive personal and professional mealtime experiences with people with and without disabilities-and incorporating the input of a nutritionist, human services professionals, educators, and people with disabilities and their families-this practical handbook helps you ensure pleasurable, fully inclusive mealtimes. Whether you're a parent, a friend, or a human services professional, you'll gain new insight on what dining can mean and learn how to support people with disabilities as they make the most of each mealtime's social opportunities with family, friends, and neighbors, make their own informed decisions about what, where, when, and how to eat, communicate choices and needs, prepare meals, with the help of simple recipes (some fully illustrated) complete with nutritional information provided by a licensed nutritionist.

With this easy-to-use book, enhanced with personal stories and photographs from individuals and families around the world, you'll enjoy meaningful and inclusive mealtimes with people who have disabilities.
