Abstract
The Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program and more recently the Family Nutrition Program are two examples of Extension's effective employment of paraprofessionals. Training is a critical component to any program that employs paraprofessionals. Extension has been viewed as a leader in the training of paraprofessionals. This article outlines the effectiveness of organizing a one-day workshop for paraprofessionals and supervisors offered by a coalition of agencies providing outreach services to families with children in Northeast Ohio.
