Library Nutrition Supports Interest Form for USC SNAP-Ed Program

Thank you for taking the time to fill out this brief interest form!  The University of South Carolina (USC) Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Education (SNAP-Ed) team is recruiting public libraries to work with them on implementing nutrition supports to increase access to healthy eating among customers/patrons and potentially also staff. Once the interest forms have been reviewed, Ashley Page, SNAP-Ed Library Coordinator, will be in contact to set-up a time to meet in person to determine readiness and need to implement a wide-range of potential nutrition support strategies (e.g., farmers’ markets, edible gardens, worksite wellness, etc.).  If selected, libraries will then receive ongoing technical assistance on selecting, implementing, evaluating, and sustaining nutrition supports. 

 

SNAP-Ed is a program created to support the role of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, formerly known as foods stamps) in improving nutrition and preventing or reducing diet-related chronic disease and obesity among low-income populations. This project is funded by the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program – SNAP. This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
