Nutrition Connections

The Nutrition Connections Program provides nutrition education at no cost to low-income families and adults, with special programs for seniors and youth. We provide educational programming on basic food needs, nutrition, food safety, shopping wisely for food, menu planning and reading food labels.

People are reached through home study courses, group or individual meetings, television commercials, and newsletters.
