Olo program (egg, milk, frozen vegetables and prenatal multivitamins)
Are you pregnant and your income is insufficient to meet your needs? The Olo Program can help you.
Eating well during your pregnancy is important for maintaining and even improving your health as your body undergoes major changes. Healthy eating habits also promote your child's growth and development.
Help and resources
The Olo approach offers pregnant people living in socioeconomic hardship access to nutritional follow-up care during pregnancy, including vouchers that can be exchanged for food items (eggs, milk, vegetables), and vitamin supplements, essential for an unborn baby’s proper development. This follow-up care, offered by Fondation Olo, is generally provided by a nurse or a nutritionist in your CLSC. Care providers also help pregnant people and their family develop healthy eating habits. If you would like to join the Olo program, you must fill in the Ma grossesse form or contact your CLSC.
If you would like to find out more about nutrition and healthy eating during the perinatal period, the Fondation Olo website also has a blog with articles, videos, recipes and tools to help you plan and save money while eating well.
Info-Santé 811 is a telephone consultation service available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, everywhere in Québec.
