我们如何改进SNAP-Ed数据?
Engaging SNAP-Ed implementers to improve program data
客户端
食物及营养署挑战
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is the country’s largest food assistance program, providing supplemental benefits to over 41 million people with low incomes to purchase groceries each month. The SNAP Nutrition 教育 and Obesity Prevention 服务 grant program (SNAP-Ed) equips people eligible for SNAP with resources and information to make healthy choices.
USDA FNS has long recognized the need for better SNAP-Ed data. 专家圆桌会议, 联邦审计,和 2018 Farm Bill have stressed the importance of modernizing data from the states to analyze the outcomes and effects of SNAP-Ed. FNS made substantial progress toward this goal through our recent collaboration forUpdating SNAP-Ed 数据收集 Practices, where we produced an agenda and action plan for improved SNAP-Ed data.
解决方案
FNS contracted with Insight Policy Research (now 趣赢平台) to carry out the Improving SNAP-Ed Dataproject, which aimed to update the SNAP-Ed Data Improvement Agenda and Action Plan developed in our prior contract and then implement aspects of the plan. A key objective of this project is to better support FNS’s vision of high-quality, accessible national program data that support continuous program improvement and better outcomes for individuals with low incomes.
结果
Progress to date includes the following activities:
- 聘请SNAP-Ed专家, 包括 state and implementing agency staff, in technical working groups and a steering committee to inform new plan and report templates and identify next steps for data improvement to build on the SNAP-Ed Data Improvement Agenda and Action Plan (PDF). 看到 SNAP-Ed数据改进行动计划.0 (PDF).
- Created new plan and report forms in collaboration with FNS, later developed into the new web-based systems: National Program Evaluation and Reporting System (N-PEARS).
- Coordinated with internal and external partners to understand best practices and equitable approaches to inform development of resources, 包括 SNAP-Ed Needs Assessment Toolkit (PDF), SNAP-Ed Policy, Systems, and Environmental Change Data Toolkit (PDF),和 SNAP-Ed Behavior Outcome Measurement Toolkit (PDF).
