OLGT 2015-42: SNAP Nutrition Education
Date:
This Online Guide Transmittal adds a new book to the SNAP section of the Online Guide to include Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Education and Obesity Prevention (SNAP-Ed). The primary goal of SNAP-
Ed is to provide people who are eligible for SNAP with information and tools to help make healthy food choices within a limited budget.
Following the current Dietary Guidelines for Americans and USDA’s MyPlate system, SNAP-Ed helps clients to improve eating habits and encourages them to choose physically active lifestyles. In this way, SNAP-
Ed helps with obesity prevention.
