This training provided hands-on experience implementing the curriculum recipes and physical activity components. Auburn staff are preparing to implement this program in their local communities to reach youth with Upward Bound, in high school culinary classes, and beyond. Fuel for Life will allow for an age-appropriate implementation of nutrition concepts that were previously challenging to accomplish.

Theresa Mince and Amy Sorter, EFNEP colleagues with Auburn University, demonstrated welcoming southern hospitality in Alabama. It was an enriching experience visiting Alabama where EFNEP originated 60 years ago!

Five counties in Alabama were chosen in 1964 for trial initiation of a unique food and nutrition program for low-income families. Based on the results of this pilot educational program, the basic purpose was expanded to a national scope in 1969. By 1972, Alabama was in the process of initiating the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) in the last of its counties. –Dunkelberger, J. E.; And Others
