Health & Wellness
Through NJ SNAP Ed, CFBNJ’s Nutrition Education team supports our partners in adopting and implementing health and wellness practices, strategies and changes to make healthier choices readily available and easily accessible.
CFBNJ provides free, nutrition education workshops to our network partners that help neighbors who are eligible for SNAP (formerly known as food stamps) choose healthy food on a budget and make physical activity a part of their lives.
Bring Health and Wellness to Your Community
Direct Education provides fun and interactive lessons on how to prepare healthier meals, engage in more physical activity, and improve government management practices. Workshops are offered both in-person and virtually to SNAP-eligible teens, adults, pregnant people, new moms, and seniors.
Our dedicated nutrition education team serves 12 counties across New Jersey: Atlantic, Bergen, Cape May, Cumberland, Essex, Hudson, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, Passaic, Salem and Union counties. Last year, we visited 300 partners with nearly 22,000 participants.
“We really appreciate the fresh items we get from the pantry.”
