This evaluation project aims to assess the impact of the Penn State Child Health Research Center's final year of SNAP-Ed funded nutrition education program in low-income preschool classrooms in Pennsylvania. This project uses a combination of nutrition education, repeated exposure to a variety of vegetables, and associative conditioning (using dips to make vegetables more appealing) to improve children's knowledge, acceptance, and intake of vegetables.
