La Flor del Sin Nombre The story of a rural town in California where everybody can be a Champion for Change. La Flor del Sin Nombre is an hour-long telenovela that promotes improved nutrition and educates about food stamp access. Targeted to Spanish-speaking farmworkers and other Hispanic immigrants, it touches on three nutrition themes: increasing fruit and vegetable consumption, cutting fat intake, and reducing high-sugar beverage consumption. In the story, Sin Nombre (literally, No Name) is a small San Joaquin Valley town in California predominantly occupied by farmworker families. Xochitl Sandoval, a daughter of farmworkers and community organizer is the main protagonist. Xochitl is committed to improving the diet and nutrition of community members, particularly since she lost both of her parents to complications from type 2 diabetes. The nutrition education and food stamp access themes are interwoven in this traditional telenovela story, complete with suspense, drama, love and betrayal. A project of UC Berkeley & UC Cooperative Extensions Building Food Security Workgroup, in collaboration with the California Institute for Rural Studies and Fotonovelas del Valle, this production was funded in part by the Food Stamp Program of the United States Department of Agriculture, an equal opportunity employer. ________________________________________ ...
