Safety
The
Food Safety and Nutrition Education Program provides research-based
food safety and nutrition information and public education. Our goal
is to empower individuals and families to make lasting behavior changes
that promote health and prevent disease. To achieve this goal we
provide the following services and programs:
Consumer Food-Related Assistance:
Do you have a food safety, food preparation or preservation, or
nutrition question? WSU Extension offices can put
you in contact with a resource that can help you out.
Either contact our
office or check out the links to food
and nutrition resources.
Family Nutrition Education Program:
WSU Extension offers a series of lessons designed to help people
get the best nutrition at the lowest cost for the families. Information
taught can help limited resource families buy food wisely, handle it safely,
and
cook nutritious meals. The program can also help them make the best use
of food they receive from other sources such as private food banks and
government
food distribution programs. For more information check out our Nutrition
Education section.
To arrange a series in your area send an e-mail inquiry to Doris
Torkelson, Family Living Agent.
Additional
information on nutrition and food safety issues can also be obtained
from these WSU Web sites:
