Instrument Design. The HealthMPowers School Setting Nutrition Survey was designed by a multi-sector advisory team of 15 nutrition, school, public health, and education experts including representatives from HealthMPowers, Xxxxxxx School of Public Health at Emory University, Georgia Department of Education (DOE), Georgia Department of Public Health (DPH), Georgia State University, CDC, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta and Georgia Shape.
