Youth Program :  The youth nutrition education program targets schools and community programs with large numbers of children from Food Stamp households. Teachers, Youth Program Leaders, and other extenders at the sites are trained to deliver a nutrition education program targeted to youth audiences.

Adult Program:  The major goal of FSNEP is to improve the nutrition-related skills of Food Stamp recipients, specifically those skills related to selecting, purchasing and preparing a low-cost nutritional diet for themselves and their family. FSNEP lessons include:

*self-sufficiency *food preparation skills
*food budgeting *managing resources
*food safety and sanitation *feeding infants and children
