Summary

As the Community Outreach & Marketing Coordinator, I'll share the success stories and some of the barriers of a nutrient rich diet in Clark County. In Nevada, the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) is administered by University of Nevada, Reno Extension to engage adults and youth to boost nutrition through building basic skills. Participants learn how to read food labels, save money on groceries, plan meals, safely handle food, make healthy food choices, and be more active.
