Connecting to the Community

The Kendall Reagan Nutrition Center provides service-learning opportunities and training for students while enhancing the health of the community through nutrition outreach, collaboration, and research.

We’re dedicated to making a positive impact on health and wellness through EFNEP education programs, extension services, and the Lillian Fountain-Smith nutrition conference.
