Create Better Health

Create Better Health is Utah's SNAP-Ed Program. SNAP-Ed is the nutrition education component of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as food stamps. The Create Better Health program is offered through Utah State University Extension offices.

Create Better Health teaches people with limited time and money how to eat well and be active. Our classes focus on teaching participants how to make delicious and nutritious meals from foods they already have on hand. All information shared in Create Better Health classes is based on USDA's nutrition and physical activity guidelines.

The classes are free.
