Success During Trying Times

Author: Danielle Fairchild

Planning Unit: Lawrence County CES

Major Program: Nutrition and Food Systems General

Outcome: Intermediate Outcome

My success as a Supplemental Nutrition Assistant Program Assistant (SNAP-Ed) during Covid-19 is the ability to be able to still get Nutrition Education information to the seniors through their lunch program. The Lawrence County Senior Citizens Center has free drive-by hot meals available for any person 60 years of age or older Monday through Friday at the local center. The SNAP-Ed assistant has provided recipes, newsletters, and informational sheets weekly to be distributed to the seniors. The SNAP-Ed assistant was also able to get information to all the qualifying seniors for farmer’s market vouchers to help supplement their grocery expenses.
