Building a Stronger Future for Community Nutrition & Physical Activity

ASNNA brings together professionals, organizations, and partners committed to strengthening community nutrition and physical activity. Through collaboration, peer learning, leadership, innovation, and a strong national voice, we support the people working to improve the health and well-being of communities.

Building on more than 30 years of experience and connections developed through SNAP-Ed, ASNNA is carrying that legacy forward—bringing together a broader community to share expertise, strengthen partnerships, and shape the future of community nutrition and physical activity.

Help Build the Future of Nutrition Education

The Association of SNAP Nutrition Education Administrators (ASNNA), the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the National Grocers Association, the Society for Nutrition Education and Behavior (SNEB), The Food Trust, and Leah’s Pantry, are inviting state and national organizations to endorse the Nutrition Innovation and Infrastructure Initiative — a proposal to establish a national nutrition education and physical activity program that helps states and communities support healthy eating, physical activity, disease prevention, and long-term health.

This initiative builds on the valuable work and infrastructure established through SNAP-Ed while presenting a forward-looking and viable framework for moving nutrition education forward.

Please complete this brief form to confirm your organization’s endorsement, indicate whether you are a state or national organization, and upload the logo you would like included with the endorsement materials. Contact info@asnna.us.org with any questions.

The Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior (JNEB) has extended the submission deadline for its upcoming special issue focused on SNAP-Ed.

This special issue will highlight the impact, lessons learned, and future opportunities stemming from SNAP-Ed, formerly the nation’s largest comprehensive nutrition education program. Topics may include program reach and outcomes, policy, systems, and environmental (PSE) strategies, evaluation, partnerships, implementation, and the impacts of the program’s recent defunding.

The issue welcomes a variety of manuscript types, including research articles, research briefs, reports, perspectives, GEMs, mixed methods analyses, and systematic reviews.

New Submission Deadline
