Helping Illinois Make Healthy Choices

Illinois Nutrition Education Programs

By providing solutions through in-person lessons and online resources, Illinois Nutrition Education Programs makes the healthy choice an easier choice where families eat, learn, live, shop, and play.

Illinois Nutrition Education Programs includes the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program. We are part of University of Illinois Extension and located in Cook, Madison, and St. Clair Counties in Illinois. We provide free, easy solutions to improve the health of Illinois families through hands-on cooking and nutrition education classes that incorporate physical activity, food safety, food resource management, and meal planning.

Note that program opportunities from Illinois Nutrition Education Programs are different than in previous years due to the end of the SNAP-Ed program.
