Wording for the nutrition information materials from the Food Stamp Nutrition Education Program Plan Guidance
USDA. Food and Nutrition Service. Food Stamp Program.
"For a full listing of required wording, refer to the 2009 Food Stamp Nutrition Education Program Plan Guidance (above).
  • Nondiscrimination Statement in English and Spanish
    Materials developed with Food Stamp Program funds must include this nondiscrimination statement. There are no print size requirements if the statement above is used. If the material is too small to permit the full statement to be included, the material must at a minimum include the statement, in print size no smaller than the text, that "This institution is an equal opportunity provider and employer."
  • Outreach Statement in English and Spanish
    A brief outreach message about the Food Stamp Program must be provided on all newly developed or reprinted materials. Customize the wording in this file for your program.
  • Funding Statement in English and Spanish
    Provide credit to the Food Stamp Program as a funding source using the example provided in this file. A credit line must appear on newly developed materials; adding it to reprints is encouraged.
  • Memorandum of Understanding Example (PDF|108KB)
    The Guidance specifies that in cases when FSNE will be delivered in coordination with another agency (i.e., WIC, Department of Education, food bank, etc.), a MOU that clearly outlines the responsibilities of all parties should accompany the State FSNE Plan . This template example shows the basic components of an MOU, however, other sections may need to be added depending on the nature of the agreement and the parties involved."
