Planning Unit: Hancock County CES
Major Program: Nutrition and Food Systems General
Outcome: Long-Term Outcome
Germs are everywhere, is the statement the Expanded Food Nutrition Program Assistant (EFNEP) from the Hancock County Cooperative Extension office used serval times while working with kindergarten-second graders. Several of the students thought they only needed to wash their hands after being inside a restroom.
During the program with the students, EFNEP talked about all the times during the day a person should wash their hands. We discussed how each time you wash your hands it should be for twenty seconds.
By the end of the program 88% more of the students knew, you must always wash your hands before preparing food to stop the spread of germs.
