SUMMARY:SNAP-Ed: A Vital Investment in Illinois Families and Communities
DESCRIPTION:Join us on November 11th at 7:00 pm via Zoom for this month’s Ideas Forum\, “SNAP-Ed: A Vital Investment in Illinois Families and Communities.” \nThis event is free\, but please register at https://rebrand.ly/nov11-ideasforum. \nThere is more to SNAP than the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. SNAP-Ed teaches SNAP participants how to use their food resources wisely to strengthen the health and well-being of their families. With the government shutdown still in effect at the time of this posting\, and with SNAP funds unavailable\, this is more important than ever. \n\nIn this Forum\, you will hear how  SNAP-Ed helps families make nutritious food choices\, stretch their food dollars\, and increase physical activity. \n\nThe session also explores partnerships with schools\, food pantries and community organizations that create lasting\, healthy changes—and demonstrates the strong return on investment SNAP-Ed provides to Illinois communities. \nOur speaker\, Christine Birns\, is a SNAP-Ed educator with the University of Illinois Extension. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Human Development & Family Sciences from Northern Illinois University and a master’s degree in Social Work from University of Illinois at Chicago with an emphasis in child and family services. \n\nBirns works with food pantries\, K-12 schools\, adult and youth community programs\, and early childcare centers providing technical assistance at the systems and environmental levels. She provides assistance on nutrition education and obesity prevention to help make the healthy choice the easy choice.
