| Impact Report | FACE Programs adults complete “Feeding Children, Healthy Snacks and More!” workshops. 23 adults attended the four day workshops they participated in several activities that allowed them to prepare and sample several healthy snacks, they learned how to read nutrition facts, make meals a positive experience for children and include their children in the preparation of the meals. The last 45 minutes of the program encourage pre- school student participation. The students and parents work in assigned groups and prepare a healthy snack which is later shared with the entire class. Since 23 adults attended 4 snacks were prepared at each session. The groups shared their experiences in preparing the snacks and invited input from the other groups. Evaluation showed that the majority of adults liked the series and would recommend the workshops to other adults. The food that was used to prepare the snacks were products that the majority of people receive from the Gallup Community Pantry on a weekly basis. The program goal is intended to help recipients make the best use of products they receive as oppose to refusing to accept various items that are not commonly used by Native Americans. |
