Comments regarding this information collection received by June 20,
2024 will be considered. Written comments and recommendations for the
proposed information collection should be submitted within 30 days of
the publication of this notice on the following website
<a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular information

Food and Nutrition Service
Title: SNAP-Ed Connection Resource Sharing Form 889.
OMB Control Number: 0584-0625.
Summary of Collection: Section 28 of the Food and Nutrition Act
(FNA) of 2008, as amended (7 U.S.C. 2036a), states that ``The Secretary
shall establish an online clearinghouse that makes available to State
agencies, local agencies, institutions of higher education, and
community organizations, best practices for planning, implementing, and
evaluating nutrition education and obesity prevention services to
ensure that projects carried out with funds received under this section
are appropriate for the target population.'' Information collected via
the SNAP-Ed Connection Resource Sharing Form (FNS-889) form enables the
Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) to review and approve resources to be
shared publicly on the SNAP-Ed Connection website.
The SNAP-Ed Connection is FNS's online clearinghouse and includes
resources shared among SNAP-Ed administrators and educators. This
resource website helps SNAP-Ed personnel find the tools and information
needed to implement evidence-based obesity prevention programs. The
FNS-889 form enables FNS to collect and disseminate SNAP-Ed-related
information and resources via the SNAP-Ed Connection website, thus
meeting the requirements of the FNA, Section 28(c)(7)1.
This revision to the information collection is necessary to improve
the submission process and clarify the information collected, thus
providing data that is accurate and beneficial to SNAP-Ed agencies
using the resources. These updates are also necessary to align with FNS
system and process changes. The updates to the FNS-889 form will align
with the new SNAP-Ed National Program Evaluation and Reporting System
(N-PEARS) to ensure consistency with SNAP-Ed specific terms. This form
update will also help ensure FNS uses the same submission criteria for
nutrition and physical activity interventions, as those resources will
no longer be accepted via this form, but through the SNAP-Ed
intervention submission process.
SNAP-Ed Connection Resource Sharing Form FNS 889: SNAP-Ed personnel
use the SNAP-Ed Connection website to locate curricula, participant
materials, nutrition research, administrative documents, and
information regarding SNAP-Ed program development, implementation and
evaluation. Within SNAP-Ed Connection is the SNAP-Ed Library, an online
database of SNAP-Ed-related materials. SNAP-Ed personnel and other
nutrition and public health agencies use the SNAP-Ed Connection
Resource Sharing Form to share information about resources that can be
used to administer, develop, implement and showcase SNAP-Ed programs.
SNAP-Ed personnel include nutrition education instructors in State,
local, and Tribal Governments, and businesses.
Need and Use of the Information: The information collected via this
form will be reviewed and approved by FNS for possible inclusion in the
SNAP-Ed Library. These collected resources may be shared with SNAP-Ed
State and local agencies to provide technical assistance, best
practices and help enhance program activities. They may also be
highlighted in FNS's communications such as SNAP-Ed email newsletters
and other social media platforms.
Respondents to this information collection will be asked to use the
FNS-889 form to submit their resources for review and may submit
materials at any time. Respondents will access the FNS-889 form via a
direct link on the SNAP-Ed Library web page, that will take them to the
Microsoft Forms website to complete the form. The form includes
instructions to email resource attachments to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#cab9a4abbae7afaea9a5a4a4afa9bea3a5a48abfb9aeabe4ada5bc"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="aeddc0cfde83cbcacdc1c0c0cbcddac7c1c0eedbddcacf80c9c1d8">[email protected]</span></a> upon completion. If a respondent is not able to
use the FNS-889 form, they may submit responses to the form questions
via email to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#cdbea3acbde0a8a9aea2a3a3a8aeb9a4a2a38db8bea9ace3aaa2bb"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="a4d7cac5d489c1c0c7cbcacac1c7d0cdcbcae4d1d7c0c58ac3cbd2">[email protected]</span></a>.
