EFNEP is offered in a series of sessions- the more sessions you attend, the more you can learn. Most of the sessions are taught in groups, but you can choose to spend some individual time with the EFNEP program assistant.

If you want to feel better today and stay healthier for tomorrow follow this advice.
Make smart choices from each food group. Include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fat-free or low- fat milk and milk products along with lean meats , poultry, fish, beans, eggs, and nuts. Choose foods low in saturated fats, trans fat, cholesterol, salt (sodium), and added sugars.
- Find your balance between food and physical activity. Be physically active for at least 30 minutes most days of the week.
- Get the nutrition out of your calories. The right number of calories for you to eat each day depends on your age, activity level, and whether you're trying to gain, maintain or lose weight. Choose to eat healthy foods rather than use your calories on a few high-calorie foods or beverages.
