Agenda Item Text:

Approve a Proclamation declaring April 132019 as a day for all residents of Cochise County to celebrate Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program's (EFNEP) success in teaching, helping, and serving limited-resource families in Cochise County, Arizona.

Background:

Since 1969, the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) has successfully addressed critical societal concerns by employing paraprofessional staff and influencing nutrition and physical activity behaviors of low-income families, particularly those with young children. Through a community-based, relationship-driven, hands-on educational approach, EFNEP has directly impacted economic, obesity, and food insecurity challenges that hinder the health and well-being of this nation.

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

File Cochise County's Proclamation.
