Study Summary
This trial will study the effect of adult-focused direct SNAP-Ed on child dietary quality and household food security.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for low-income households in Indiana with children, where adults are willing to participate and wait a year for SNAP-Ed.

Pregnant or lactating individuals or those who've had SNAP-Ed lessons in the past year cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if adult-focused nutrition education (SNAP-Education) can improve dietary quality in children and increase household food security. It involves tracking diet through surveys before, after a 10-week course, and one year later. The control group will receive the intervention after this period.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
There are no direct side effects from participating as this trial focuses on education rather than medical interventions. However, changes in diet may lead to temporary adjustments in digestion or eating habits.
