The major program goal is for SNAP-eligible Florida residents to improve the quality of their diets toward better nutrition and adopt an active lifestyle for chronic disease prevention, healthy weight management, and improved quality of life.
Individuals who are SNAP-Ed-eligible Florida residents of various age groups, including children, youth/teens, families with children, adults, and seniors.

Florida SNAP-Ed will promote overall health by increasing healthy eating and physical activity opportunities for SNAP-Ed eligible Floridians to improve quality of life. The program will also take a life cycle approach, reaching SNAP-Ed eligible children, adults, and older adults to impact SNAP-eligible Floridians throughout the life course. Florida combines evidence-based nutrition education with policy, systems, and environmental changes, which aim to make the healthy choice the easy choice.
