Summary

This is a pilot intervention study conducted in four food shelves in the Twin Cities area. The aims of the study are to improve nutritional outcomes and client skills and self-efficacy among a culturally diverse group of food shelf clients through a nutrition education and meal preparation program.

The goal is to inform a larger-scale intervention to improve the nutritional quality and cultural relevance of food shelf items as well as client outcomes.
