What is the Family Nutrition Program?

FNP

Ohio State University Extension's Family Nutrition Program (FNP) is funded by Midwest Region Food and Nutrition Service, United States Department of Agriculture.  The Family Nutrition Program is sometimes called the Food Stamp Nutrition Education Program.  FNP is a partnership between the Ohio Department of Job & Family Services and Ohio State University Extension.  It is an effort to improve the nutrition of families and individuals who are food stamp program participants or eligible nonparticipants.  In counties that also have EFNEP programs, FNP participants are usually adults who do not have children living in their homes.  For more information you can go to http://fnp.osu.edu or contact Ashley Patterson at 740-596-5212 or email patterson.819@osu.edu
