Success Stories

Adult Program:

An EFNEP client mentioned, "When I first started the program, my 4-year old would not eat beans. Because of a pizza with beans we made in class, he now likes and eats beans. He has also learned to eat many other good foods due to my classes."

Another EFNEP client said, "Since I started taking the nutrition classes, I am more health conscious. I read food labels and have learned a lot about nutrition. I am cooking food from all the food groups."

Youth Program:

An EFNEP youth volunteer stated, "Because of the Expanded Nutrition Program, I am able to provide updated nutrition information, activities, and food demonstrations to youth. This information provides them with a roadway to good health. The classes provide information that can make a difference in the lives of our youth."
