Ohio Library Kids Program
“I manage a small village library in NW Ohio and SNAP-Ed comes in a handful of times every other programming season with a series of nutritional and educational cooking/food programs. I have personally seen kids who have never handled a knife or a vegetable or seen granola, gradually be able make their own healthy sodas, parfaits, and egg bites. Most of these kids are latch-key or raised by grandparents, so giving them confidence in the kitchen benefits them in many ways. Giving them the knowledge to make healthy choices does, too. SNAP-Ed is necessary in my community and in my library.”
