Maximizing the Reach and Impact of WA SNAP-Ed Resources

Washington SNAP-Ed seeks to help people in Washington with food insecurity access healthy food. To fully achieve this goal, SNAP-Ed resources must be equally accessible to all SNAP participants. This project involved helping the Washington SNAP-Ed Curriculum, Training, and Website team maximize the reach of Washington SNAP-Ed through two key deliverables. Instructions were developed for enhancing the accessibility of participant-facing recipe videos. With enhanced accessibility features, like closed captions and audio description tracks, the recipe videos will be useful to a broader audience. An outlined was also created for an updated SNAP educator Civil Rights training. This training will contribute to educators’ understanding of the historical and social context of food insecurity and equip them to mitigate discrimination and promote equity in their work.
