Nebraska Food Pantry Volunteer
“I am a community member who has assisted at several food pantry distributions in Dakota County, Nebraska. With the education provided by SNAP Ed staff (I believe from the UNL Extension Office), I have seen a dramatic increase in the amounts of produce and other fresh products, including protein, selected by participants. Learning how to use fresh products provides higher nutrition. Participants see a decrease in salt and sugar due to knowing how to select the “better” choice.”
