In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this notice invites the general public and other public agencies to comment on the proposed collection of data for the Models of SNAP-Ed and Evaluation Study. This is a NEW information collection. The goal of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Education (SNAP-Ed) is to improve the likelihood that SNAP participants and eligibles will make healthy choices within a limited budget and choose active lifestyles consistent with the current Dietary Guidelines for Americans and the USDA Food Guidance System. With limited resources, SNAP-Ed nutrition educators attempt to tailor their messages to fit the varying needs of differing populations and evaluate the extent to which their efforts result in positive, voluntary changes in nutrition behaviors.
