The EFNEP is a federally funded program designed specifically for nutrition education and is administered by the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture. It was authorized in 1968 and is designed to assist limited-resource audiences in acquiring the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and changed behavior necessary for nutritionally sound diets, and to contribute to their personal development and the improvement of the total family diet. The program is implemented by trained paraprofessionals (peer educators) and volunteers from the local community under the supervision of county extension family and consumer science professionals.
