Eating a nutritious diet can be difficult with little money available for food or when skills to effectively use available resources are limited. That's why Penn State Cooperative Extension has for 35 years provided food and nutrition education to limited-resource families and high-risk audiences through its Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program. Topics include everything from preparing healthy meals to how to read food labels. In 2003, 79 nutrition educators and 1,655 volunteers reached more than 3,600 low-income homemakers and more than 11,600 low-income youth in 37 counties.
