There are many advantages to using the new mNEAT web-based app to conduct an assessment, find resources, and share results.
- Saves time.

- Offers two ways to conduct assessments based on your team’s needs.
- Prefer to assess local venues with pen and paper? We have you covered! You can download the in-person worksheets to fill out on-site and enter into the app at your convenience.

- High-level users can run reports with information from their service branches, enabling them to review and assess the current nutrition environment.
