Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: An historical and statistical profile of the education efforts of the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) covers the period from November, 1968 through September, 1977. The program was charged to educate families living in or near poverty to acquire knowledge, skills, and changes in behavior to achieve adequate diets providing normal nutrition. 1.5 million families were taught in the program influencing, in turn 6 million family members' diets; 3.5 million youth participated in EFNEP's 4-H food and nutrition activities. EFNEP focuses on knowledge of how to use available food resources and the importance of nutrition. Initial pilot projects showed the feasibility of EFNEP. Paraprofessional aides and existing extension home economics programs were employed. Existing national, state, and county programs and personnel share EFNEP responsibility. EFNEP has had a positive impact on the diets of program families.
Book Synopsis Impact of the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program on Low-income Families by : John Gerald Feaster

This book was released on 1972 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The study showed that about 184,000 low-income families participated in the Extension Service's Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) prior to October 1969. A sample showed that family incomes were very low--less than $2,700, of which more than a third was spent for food. Families with annual incomes of less than $1,200 per year spent nearly one-half for food. Most families were urban, members of minority groups, and had homemakers with relatively low educational levels. Food consumption practices of homemakers upon entering the program indicated that many families had poor diets. Foods in the milk, fruit and vegetable group were most often lacking in diets. After 6 months of EFNEP participation substantial, improvements in food knowledge and consumption practices were evident, particularly in the consumption of foods in the milk, fruit, and vegetable groups. Homemakers with poorest diets showed more improvement than those who had better initial food consumption practices.

This book was released on 2013-04-23 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many Americans who live at or below the poverty threshold, access to healthy foods at a reasonable price is a challenge that often places a strain on already limited resources and may compel them to make food choices that are contrary to current nutritional guidance. To help alleviate this problem, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) administers a number of nutrition assistance programs designed to improve access to healthy foods for low-income individuals and households. The largest of these programs is the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly called the Food Stamp Program, which today serves more than 46 million Americans with a program cost in excess of $75 billion annually. The goals of SNAP include raising the level of nutrition among low-income households and maintaining adequate levels of nutrition by increasing the food purchasing power of low-income families. In response to questions about whether there are different ways to define the adequacy of SNAP allotments consistent with the program goals of improving food security and access to a healthy diet, USDA's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) asked the Institute of Medicine (IOM) to conduct a study to examine the feasibility of defining the adequacy of SNAP allotments, specifically: the feasibility of establishing an objective, evidence-based, science-driven definition of the adequacy of SNAP allotments consistent with the program goals of improving food security and access to a healthy diet, as well as other relevant dimensions of adequacy; and data and analyses needed to support an evidence-based assessment of the adequacy of SNAP allotments. Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program: Examining the Evidence to Define Benefit Adequacy reviews the current evidence, including the peer-reviewed published literature and peer-reviewed government reports. Although not given equal weight with peer-reviewed publications, some non-peer-reviewed publications from nongovernmental organizations and stakeholder groups also were considered because they provided additional insight into the behavioral aspects of participation in nutrition assistance programs. In addition to its evidence review, the committee held a data gathering workshop that tapped a range of expertise relevant to its task.

Book Synopsis Nutrition Education by : David D. Bellis
Download or read book Nutrition Education written by David D. Bellis and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To help improve nutrition, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) provides nutrition education through five of its programs: Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP); Food Stamp Program (FSP); Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC); National School Lunch Program (NLP); and Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP). In 2002, it spent $472 billion on such efforts. This study examined key actions that officials took to increase the likelihood of success in nutrition education and looked at whether USDA and state and local officials took these actions during program design, service delivery, and program monitoring and evaluation. Researchers interviewed experts in the field of nutrition education research, reviewed key research on the topic, and reviewed GAO reports and other documents on performance-based management. They interviewed officials from each of the five programs and reviewed program reports and studies. They also interviewed state and local officials from each of the programs in three states, conducted site visits in Maryland and California, and conducted telephone interviews with Michigan officials. Finally, they identified and reviewed studies and evaluations of the programs? nutrition education efforts that were conducted over the last 10 years. Results indicated that there were several key actions, based on research and performance-based management principles, that increased the likelihood that programs would achieve their goal (e.g., identifying program goals, tailoring services to meet participant needs, and collecting data on program results). The actions could be taken during program design, delivery, and monitoring and evaluation. The programs generally incorporated the key design actions likely to contribute to success. However, programs? administrative structures hindered coordination among USDA nutrition education efforts. Programs incorporated the service delivery actions likely to cont nutrition education in different ways and to varying extents, but they faced similar challenges affecting their ability to fully incorporate the actions (e.g., limited resources and systems). USDA?s nutrition education efforts did not fully incorporate the monitoring and evaluation actions that contribute to success, such as collecting data on types of nutrition education provided and outcomes of the efforts. Three appendixes present the study scope and methodology, nutrition education goals of key USDA programs, and GAO contacts and staff acknowledgements.
Book Synopsis Child and Adult Care Food Program by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Child and Adult Care Food Program written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-06-06 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) is a federally-funded program designed to provide healthy meals and snacks to children and adults while receiving day care at participating family day care homes, traditional child care centers, afterschool facilities, adult care facilities, and emergency shelters. CACFP has the broadest scope of any of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) food program, serving more than 3 million children and 114,000 adults across the nation. To receive reimbursement for the foods served, participating programs must abide by requirements set by the USDA. Child and Adult Care Food Program assesses the nutritional needs of the CACFP population based on Dietary Guidelines for Americans and the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) and makes recommendations for revisions to the CACFP meal requirements. The book outlines meal requirements that include food specifications that could be used for specific meals and across a full day, covering all age groups from infants to older adults and meal patterns designed for use in a variety of settings, including in-home care and in large centers. By implementing these meal requirements, consumption of fruits, vegetables, and whole-grain rich foods will increase while consumption of solid fats, added sugars, and sodium will decrease. Not only will this address the high prevalence of childhood obesity, it will also help to achieve consistency with the standards and regulations of other USDA nutrition assistance programs, particularly the Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), and the National School Lunch and School Breakfast programs. Child and Adult Care Food Program makes practical recommendations that would bring CACFP meals and snacks into alignment with current dietary guidance. The book will serve as a vital resource for federal and state public health officials, care providers working in child and adult day care facilities, WIC agencies, officials working with the National School Lunch and School Breakfast programs, and other organizations serving at-risk populations.
