Important update: The congressional budget reconciliation bill signed into law on July 4, 2025 ends federal SNAP-Ed funding effective September 30, 2025.

For more than 30 years, UW–Madison Extension has provided local nutrition education across Wisconsin through the federal SNAP-Ed grant program. Working with schools, food pantries, farmers markets, and community centers, FoodWIse has taught practical, evidence-based skills in meal planning, food safety, and food resource management, helping people stretch food dollars and make healthier choices.

Extension will continue the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) in Dane, Kenosha, Milwaukee, Racine, Rock, and Waukesha counties, which have been identified as EFNEP priority areas in partnership with the National Institute of Agriculture (NIFA). You can learn more about our EFNEP programming here.

This work is supported by the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program, project award no.NI24EFNEPXXXG033, from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture.
