Abstract: The Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) is the nation's first nutrition education program for low-income populations and remains at the forefront of nutrition education efforts to reduce nutrition insecurity of low-income families and youth today. EFNEP contributes to food and nutrition security as program families and youths gain knowledge and skills for healthier food and physical activity choices, increased food resource management (e.g. shopping and food preparation), food safety, and improved food security practices to keep healthy in challenging times. This report reflects how EFNEP continues to make a difference in the lives of low-income families and youths. Consistent with previous years, adult and youth participants in 2024 reported improved food behaviors and overall diet following program involvement. The report also includes shared stories of EFNEP benefits from multiple institutions nationwide.
