Education (SNAP-Ed) programs; reports 

or other materials that demonstrate the 

effectiveness of SNAP-Ed funded 

programs; other materials developed by 

SNAP-Ed funded programs. The SNAPEd Library may be used by SNAP-Ed 

personnel and others to easily search for 

resources and to learn about the work of 

other SNAP-Ed programs. 

Revisions to this form will not add 

additional burden to users. 

Comments: Comments are invited on 

(a) whether the proposed collection of

information is necessary for the proper

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: SNAP-Ed Connection Resource 

Sharing Form. 

Form Number: FNS–889. 

OMB Number: 0584–0625. 

Expiration Date: 4/30/2021. 

Type of Request: Revision of currently 

approved data collection. 

Abstract: In 2001, the United States 

Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) 

Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) 

established the Food Stamp Nutrition 

Connection to improve access to Food 

Stamp Program Education resources. In 

2008, the website was renamed the 

SNAP-Ed Connection. The website is 

developed and maintained at the FNS. 

The SNAP-Ed Connection is a resource 

website for SNAP-Ed administrators and 

educators. SNAP-Ed personnel use the 

SNAP-Ed Connection website to locate 

curricula, participant materials, 

nutrition research, administrative 

documents, and information regarding 

SNAP-Ed program development, 

implementation and evaluation. This 

resource website helps SNAP-Ed 

personnel find the tools and information 

they need to implement high-quality 

evidence-based obesity prevention 

programs. 

The SNAP-Ed Library is an online 

database of SNAP-Ed-related materials. 

The SNAP-Ed Connection Resource 

Sharing Form gives SNAP-Ed personnel, 

as well as those who develop nutrition 

education materials, the opportunity to 

voluntarily share information about 

resources that can be used to 

administer, develop, implement, 

evaluate or showcase SNAP-Ed 

programs. Information collected via this 

form enables the SNAP-Ed Connection 

staff to review materials for possible 

inclusion in the SNAP-Ed Library. 

SNAP-Ed personnel and other interested 

parties then search this database via the 

SNAP-Ed Connection website https://

snaped.fns.usda.gov to locate materials 

of interest. By using this database, 

SNAP-Ed-funded programs can share 

resources with each other, reduce 

duplication of efforts, and improve 

program quality. SNAP-Ed-funded 

programs can also learn about useful 

nutrition education materials created by 

other organizations. 

Users may complete the form online. 

Respondents will provide contact 

information, ordering information, and 

information about the resource they are 

submitting. 

Revisions to the FNS–889 are not yet
