WNEP
The Wisconsin Nutrition Education Program in Grant County helps address the needs of the low income in the areas of food and nutrition. The working poor and those living in poverty face difficult choices such as how to allocate money for food, shelter, credit obligations or high medical bills. Resources such as food stamps help make ends meet and provide the opportunity to purchase nutritious food that contributes toward good health. The Wisconsin Nutrition Education Program in Grant County helps food stamp recipients make the most of this benefit by providing research-based nutrition education. Participants in the nutrition education program learn, hands-on, how to:
- choose and fix meals and snacks that are nutritious, safe and affordable
- manage their resources to improve their food security
- balance the food they eat with physical activity
