Program overview
This $498,000 non-competitive cooperative agreement is available to the Oklahoma Tribal Engagement Partners (OKTEP). This cooperative agreement is a continuation of work previously initiated by FNA through a needs assessment to understand the topics Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) staff were interested in learning about in a nutrition paraprofessional training program. OKTEP will utilize this cooperative agreement to continue offering the FDPIR nutrition paraprofessional training, known as the Community Nutrition Champion Training (CNCT), to FDPIR staff. Additionally, OKTEP will address participant requests and deliver an advanced version of the training, CNCT 2.0, to build on previous knowledge gained through the first CNCT curriculum and provide a more comprehensive nutrition education experience for attendees.
