Each year, FoodWIse educators teach more than 35,000 Wisconsin residents with evidence-based nutrition programs. By partnering with schools, coalitions, childcare centers, and community organizations, we make healthy choices accessible for individuals and families with low-income. FoodWIse promotes changes for individuals, communities, and systems to make healthy choices easier, improving diet quality, physical activity, food resource management, food safety, and nutrition security.

FoodWIse is federally funded by the USDA Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Education (SNAP-Ed) and the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP).
