Curriculum Development

High School Lessons – In 2008 I began working with Glenda Hyde on developing lessons to be

piloted in Central Oregon high school programming. The initial lessons piloted in 2008 were

successful, and since have been regularly edited, re-worked, and additional lessons have been

added. Currently, there are 10 classroom/educational lessons along with materials to guide a

complimentary series of “Healthy Cooking Lab” sessions. Since being developed in 2008 the

lessons have been used in SNAP-Ed delivery with 4 Central Oregon high schools (including 2

high school alternative Ed programs, and 2 teen parent programs. The lessons will be shared with

the high school work group in FFY2013.

Statewide Food Hero Campaign – Crook & Jefferson SNAP-Ed has seven elementary

participating in pre-survey (fall, 2012) and post-survey (Spring 2013) evaluation

components of campaign) statewide social marketing campaign for the website. The

primary and secondary target audiences are SNAP-eligible moms of school-aged kids and

the school-aged kids. The short and long-term Food Hero goals are: Moms visit

FoodHero.org/and or social media sites; Increase Fruit & Vegetable Intake, total and

forms; Increase meals cooked at home. Pre/Post survey evaluation results and impact will

be reported in the future.

OCHO and Meyer Grant Contributions – Contributions to the OCHO grant projects

included ‘training’ middle school 6th

graders at Jefferson County Middle School (JCMS)

for the taste-testing session as well as co-facilitating the actual taste-testing session at

JCMS. I also helped to organize and arrange for Crook-Jefferson OFNP program

assistants to participate in training and recipe testing/tasting sessions in Jefferson County

schools.

Meyer grant contributions included co-strategizing and planning OFNP-partnered

sessions to be carried out in Central Oregon community garden sites. As the Crook-

Jefferson SNAP-Ed program coordinator, I adapted garden lessons for SNAP-Ed

nutrition education to be delivered by CJ OFNP staff at the Willowcreek Community

Garden site in Madras.

Evidence of Program Impact

Oregon Family Nutrition Program. To be effective in nutrition education programming

OFNP staff is trained in curriculum and classroom management, equipped and annually

updated with staff input. Each staff member gets an annual observation in a classroom.

OFNP staff meets at least twice a month to discuss and evaluate programming and also

review feedback from teachers. OFNP staff delivers at least 6 lessons (usually 30, 45 or

60 minutes) over 6-9 weeks to 3 to 4 classrooms in each block of time. OFNP staff work

with a minimum of 3 schools and/or partner sites each week during the school year.

Faculty meets with administrators at least twice a year to get feedback, suggestions and

commitment for another year. Administrators approve a Wellness Team concept where

school teachers, administrators and staff are allowed and encouraged to reinforce

nutrition lessons and messages throughout the school day and all year long. OFNP staff

rotates displays, bulletin boards and tri-fold displays at each school throughout the year

and has a presence with a display and demo or a static display when attendance is not

possible during Open Houses, Conferences and Parent/Family nights.

4. Other Assignments –

In March, 2012 I was given .05 of my FTE for FCH/generalist activities. During this time

I was able to extend outreach in Crook-Jefferson counties beyond SNAP-Ed

programming by presenting nutrition education at local community health fairs and

events. I have also been able to work collaboratively with extension staff from other

programs such as Open Campus and 4-H to discuss possibilities, and in some cases plan

and schedule nutrition education classes and other related opportunities in the

communities. Discussions are ongoing and results of these collaborative partnerships will

be reported on in the future.

Nutrition Education Programs – Crook/Jefferson SNAP-Ed

Dividing CDJ Unit in 2012

During FFY 2012, Glenda Hyde, Dana Martin and I worked to divide the CDJ Unit. I

began managing the Crook-Jefferson SNAP-Ed unit in March, 2012 and Glenda Hyde

Continues to manage the Deschutes County SNAP-Ed unit. Crook-Jefferson

compromised about 1/3 of the total CDJ unit programming and resources. Dividing the

unit was planned to improve the quality of program delivery by increasing Managing

Faculty contacts with community partners, increasing flexibility in decision making, and

being able to provide better service and responsiveness to community partners and

clients.

Volunteer Program

Prior to the CDJ SNAP-Ed split, I assisted Glenda Hyde in training ~ 8 Nutrition

Education Volunteers (NEV) in FFY 2012. Participating volunteers receive training and a

resource notebook with the most current nutrition education information based on the

most recent USDA Dietary Guidelines. In return for 6 hours of training, volunteers agree

to volunteer at least 3 times over 6 months to help low-income residents learn more about

good nutrition. Volunteer activities include doing lobby demonstrations at local food

pantries, brown bag sites, SNAP offices and WIC events. After the CDJ split in 2012, I

Vita S Russell 2012

trained Sandi Boley, EPA 2 to coordinate a newly established CJ Nutrition Education

Volunteer program. We currently have 1 active volunteer (inherited form CDJ split) that

we re-trained for CJ programming and 2 hopeful volunteers to train in FFY 2013. The

establishment of a successful CJ Nutrition Education Volunteer programming is ongoing

and collaborative effort along with Sandi Boley that is currently focused on the

recruitment phase. A successfully established program will have similar goals and

expectations as the Deschutes county NEV program.

the Field’s Direction

Campus Statewide SNAP-Ed Plan Work Groups

- Mixed Ages Work Group; In September I was asked by our campus leaders to be

interim coordinator for the ‘Mixed Ages’ work group and that has turned in to a

permanent task. As work group coordinator, I will be responsible for organizing team

meetings and providing the team with guidance and support materials as needed in

order to accomplish the task successfully. This project has a deadline of spring, 2013

and the main expected outcome is for the work group to assess/analyze/review

materials and ultimately select a curriculum package to be used across the state

staring in FFY 2014 for programming done with the ‘Mixed Ages’ project group. As

part of this process, the work group will also be supplying pertinent information to a

campus-lead evaluation team to develop an evaluation tool to measure behavior

change with this project group.

- High School Work Group; The ultimate goals and outcomes of this work group are

the same as listed above for “Mixed Ages,” but instead of serving as work group

coordinator I will be a member of the work group team. As a team member, I will

work collaboratively with other team members to help identify, analyze, and select a

Vita S Russell 2012

curricula package that will be used in FFY 2014 programming with the high school

project group.

- Native Work Group; This is a special sub-work group that I formed with the SNAP-

Ed manager of the Warm Springs’ unit in order to ensure that the specific needs of the

Native American community are able to be met in all project groups in FFY 2014.

With support and guidance form campus leaders, the plan will include a needs

assessment of the Native community, followed by evaluation of work group curricula

packages, and SNAP-Ed-approved recipes. The expected outcome will be to make

adjustments and modifications to teaching materials and resources as appropriate, in

all project groups, to meet the needs of and improve likelihood of behavior change of

Native American’s participating in SNAP-Ed programming.
