Technology has provided the Rural Health and Nutrition team with the ability to continue to do their weekly follow-ups with the more than 2,000 enrolled participants in their EFNEP, Diabetes Prevention Program, Health Extension for Diabetes, Hypertension Management Program, Baby Café, and School Wellness Checklist programs.
The team also launched a WalkSC Stay-at-Home Edition. During the first 48 hours of the new program, there were over 100 SC enrollees. Enrollment for the program closes on April 9th and over 500 participants are expected to sign up.
Another way that thee RHN team is working to stay in connection with their members is through their social media outreach strategies. An active social media campaign keeps members engaged on a daily basis. Visit the Rural Health and Nutrition website for additional information (https://www.clemson.edu/extension/health/index.html).
