Manage Webinar for "Extension Opportunities in Food Access & Equity, Two Part Series"
Tuesday, Feb. 13 | 1 - 2 p.m. EST
Wednesday, March 7 | 1 - 2 p.m. EST
Register
Speakers: Dan Remley, MSPH, PhD; Amber Canto, MPH, RDN and Alexandra Bush-Kaufman, MPH, RDN, CD
Food access and equity are increasingly relevant when nutrition professionals consider improving the quality of people’s diets. Many nutrition educators in Extension work within two of the USDA low-income nutrition education and obesity prevention programs, SNAP-Ed and EFNEP. The role of the built environment in the diets of Americans is more understood, and it is widely accepted that the places where people live, learn, work, play, and shop affect their food and physical activity behaviors. It is essential that participants of SNAP-Ed and EFNEP have access to nutritious foods so that direct education efforts by Extension educators are successful in improving health behaviors. The food pantry is a common setting for direct education interventions and is growing as a place for policy, systems, and environmental change. Environmental interventions within the food pantry setting improve healthy food access and equity to low-income clients that are served by SNAP-Ed and EFNEP through Extension programming. As such, the role of Extension educators has widened in the types of technical assistance and support Extension educators now provide to food pantry agencies and their clients.

Some of the resources below are titled serving sizes, others are titled portion sizes. This article reminds us that a serving may be based on MyPlate (or a similar food guide) or a food label. A portion is what someone eats at one time for a meal or snack — a portion may be more or less than a serving.

Research shows that thinking small and setting achievable, easy-to-meet goals may be the most effective way to meet larger, long-term health goals. One small step toward healthier habits could be eating breakfast every morning. Many Americans do not eat breakfast, despite studies that show regular breakfast eating is associated with better health, better eating patterns and healthier weight.
