EFNEP

Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program

EFNEP is conducted by the Cooperative Extension System through Land-grant Universities in all U.S. states. It is content- and relationship-based, learner-centered, culturally relevant and dynamic. Attention is given to food costs and to the shopping, preparation, safety and storage of foods. This model supports program participants’ efforts toward self-sufficiency and nutritional health and well-being. In Utah, EFNEP serves Salt Lake, Davis, Weber and Utah counties.
