EFNEP helps limited-resource families and youth improve their eating behaviors
and contributes to other personal development skills through behaviorally focused nutrition education. The program is administered by Rutgers New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station (NJAES) Cooperative Extension, and is supported by USDA's CSREES Smith-Lever funds.
The desired outcomes of our education are as follows:

Improved diets and nutritional welfare;
Increased knowledge of the essentials of human nutrition;
Increased ability to select and buy food that satisfies nutritional needs;
Improved practices in food production, preparation, storage, safety
and sanitation;
Increased ability to manage food budgets and related resources such as
food stamps.
