Lessons are evidence-based and tailored to the needs of the audience. This education helps families develop skills, attitudes, and behaviors necessary to maintain a healthy diet and stay physically active. Engaging programs are provided either one-to-one or to groups. CNEs teach in a variety of settings, such as food shelves, schools, income-based housing complexes, and community centers.
Classes are taught in a variety of languages throughout Hennepin, Ramsey, Anoka, and Dakota counties. The EFNEP Community Nutrition Educators CNEs come from the neighborhoods served by this program, and have familiarity with their fellow communities which makes them thoughtful and knowledgeable peer educators. Not sure who to contact about a program or partnering? Individual and family improvements are seen for four core areas:. Throughout its history, EFNEP has used data along with participant and stakeholder feedback to guide local, state, and national program decisions.
Land-grant Universities collect the same information from adults and from youth, which allows the data to be gathered locally and reported at a state and national level. Data is also collected on community impacts through policies, systems, and environmental change PSE efforts. Five-year plans, annual updates, and budgets are used, as well, to outline needs and opportunities and make adjustments to priorities, plans, and actions taken to improve programming.
The goal for each EFNEP educational session is to maximize learning outcomes and promote positive behavior change. Through these community based programs, EFNEP improves the health and well-being of limited resource families and youth in Texas. To learn more see our Program Brief or visit our website.
