RecruitingParticipants into the SNAP-Ed Program

 

Recruiting participants into the SNAP-Ed program has been achallenge. But one day, I received a phone call about food preservation and referredthe person to another extension office, since our Family and Consumer SciencesExtension Agent transferred.  While talkingwith this person, she told me that she would like to learn more about food andnutrition.  So, I asked her if she wouldlike to join one of my SNAP-ED classes and she said “yes.”   Thisperson is also helping to recruit others to participate.  I am starting an evening class with thisgroup at the Extension Office in September 2018.
