The Center for Wellness and Nutrition (Center) has formed a partnership with the National Network of Public Health Institutes (NNPHI) in the Southeast Region of the United States to support agencies implementing the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-Education (SNAP-Ed). The states participating in this project include: Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Kentucky. Funding has been provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The Center will work with the Southeast Region to look beyond SNAP-Ed direct education and incorporate policy, systems, and environmental strategies as a support mechanism to SNAP-Ed Implementing Agencies as well as include evaluation measures and develop partnership opportunities with NNPHI members.
