SNAP Outreach
What is SNAP?
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is the largest federal nutrition program designed to help millions of low-income households stretch their budgets and put food on the table.
Building Healthy Habits through SNAP-Ed
SNAP-Ed meets people where they are and helps ensure the healthy choice is the easiest choice.
We facilitate nutrition education and cooking programs that teach people how to stretch their food budgets, prepare healthy meals, and live a physically active lifestyle for all ages.
