Abstract

This poster describes the program implementation of a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-Education (SNAP-Ed) in Extension. The presentation will focus on planning strategies for successful program delivery. We conducted an Implementation Evaluation using multiple method case studies. Data sources included interviews with facilitators and participants, observations, and surveys. Evaluators transcribed and coded 15 interviews with SNAPEd participants and educators to better understand what types of session planning strategies contribute to effective implementation of health and nutrition programs. The interviews asked whether these strategies engaged new learners, as well as how planning contributes to classroom management and the quality of the learning environment. While there is no one-size-fits-all approach to great SNAP-Ed implementation, skilled session planning strategies can be used to effectively engage learners in a low-tech, yet highly interactive classroom. Furthermore, content adaptation during implementation was relevant to connect participant immediate needs with program objectives/ goals. Considerations for program planning are explored.
