Our Story
UNCG’s Recipe For Success program is one of nine agencies implementing SNAP-Education (SNAP-Ed) programming in the state of North Carolina. SNAP-Ed is USDA funded, evidence-based, and designed to provide health and wellness education to SNAP eligible and/or receiving individuals and households. Recipe For Success (RFS) provides direct education, social marketing, and policy, systems, and environmental change programs (PSE) to communities across Guilford, Rockingham, Randolph, Davidson, Stokes, Forsyth and Davie counties.
RFS has a unique approach that’s rooted in the program’s origins in UNCG’s Department of Anthropology. Utilizing a people-centered approach to nutrition education that is rooted in food cultures and lived experiences. Working alongside community partners to better serve their unique needs and understand the food worlds they live in.
RFS builds on the goals and priorities set forth by North Carolina’s Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS) and the regulations and guidance that is revised annually to highlight the priorities of the USDA.
