Welcome
WASCA is a not-for-profit, non-government health promotion charity organisation based in Western Australia formed in 1994. WASCA assists canteens and other food services to provide and promote healthy choices and operate economically viable and professional businesses. We do this by empowering food services with training, practical tools, information and advice as well as working in partnership with schools and the wider community, government, food industry, workplaces and other non-government organisations.
WASCA is working closely with the Department of Education to support schools to implement and maintain the Healthy Food and Drinks Policy. Full details of the Government initiative are available at www.det.wa.edu.au/healthyfoodanddrink.
