Abstract

Objective

To characterize the nutrition education landscape among Gus Schumacher Nutrition Incentive Program (GusNIP) projects to inform future evaluations of GusNIP.

Methods

Nutrition education activities provided by GusNIP-affiliated project sites were collected through annual data reports submitted via a secure web portal. A descriptive analysis was used to calculate frequencies and percentages for all variables (e.g., project site, nutrition education activities) to explore and compare nutrition education provided by GusNIP projects and sites (n = 93).

Results

Gus Schumacher Nutrition Incentive Program projects employed diverse nutrition education opportunities, including various venues, unique partnerships, and educational strategies, which differed across project and site types.

Conclusions and Implications

This paper characterizes the frequency and intensity of nutrition education offered within GusNIP and is an important step toward understanding, improving, and expanding nutrition education opportunities. Findings inform a future comprehensive evaluation across projects to understand the impact of reach, dose, and participant engagement in nutrition education and reveal important opportunities for program improvement.

格斯·舒马赫营养激励计划的营养教育：景观分析。

目的：了解格斯·舒马赫营养激励计划（GusNIP）项目的营养教育概况，为今后对GusNIP的评价提供依据。方法：通过安全门户网站提交年度数据报告，收集gusnip附属项目点提供的营养教育活动。采用描述性分析计算所有变量（如项目地点、营养教育活动）的频率和百分比，以探索和比较GusNIP项目和地点提供的营养教育（n = 93）。结果：Gus Schumacher营养激励计划项目采用了不同的营养教育机会，包括不同的场地、独特的合作伙伴关系和教育策略，这些都因项目和场地类型而异。结论和意义：本文描述了GusNIP提供营养教育的频率和强度，是理解、改善和扩大营养教育机会的重要一步。研究结果为未来跨项目的综合评估提供了信息，以了解覆盖范围、剂量和参与者参与营养教育的影响，并揭示了项目改进的重要机会。
