An Introduction to The Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) Falcon Conference Albuquerque, New Mexico Helen Chipman National Program Leader, USDA-NIFA 7 November 2016

Background 14 years 9 years 14 years as EFNEP Coordinator in South Dakota Conducted low-income nutrition education programs on 7 of 9 reservations – mostly EFNEP, but some short-term grants, as well - 9 years at NIFA 9 years

What EFNEP Is Not Competitive grants program Research program Education or Extension capacity building grants program Independent projects Multi-state projects

What EFNEP Is A national nutrition education program for low-income families with young children and low-income youth EFNEP brings together federal, state, and local resources to improve the health and well-being of limited resource families and youth

Direct Education Educators Delivery Methods Paraprofessionals (peer Series of hands-on, interactive lessons Learner-centered teaching Community-based approach Audiences: low-income parents/caregivers with young children, low–income youth and children Educators: paraprofessionals (peer educators) from the indigenous target population Delivery methods: series of classes reinforced by other learning approaches Venues: where low-income audiences are found (examples: schools, child care centers, youth program sites, CES offices, housing projects, local agency offices, community learning centers, food pantries) Paraprofessionals Have knowledge and experience with the community and the target audience Are supervised and supported by professionals with programmatic and discipline expertise May be assisted by volunteers, who help with teaching, finding participants, making meeting arrangements, and other supporting roles EFNEP educators follow a research-based learning model that allows them to effectively reach and educate program participants. Educators are • members of the communities they support; • trained/supervised by university and county-based faculty; • skilled in using hands-on, interactive teaching methods; • committed to delivering sound instruction; • able to influence changes in behavior and impact the lives of those they teach; and • dedicated to reaching diverse, low-income populations.

Content - Four Core Areas Diet Quality and Physical Activity Food Resource Management Food Safety Food Security Legislative language: To enable low-income individuals and families to engage in nutritionally sound food purchasing and preparation practices. Focus is food, not nutrients; practices in real life settings
