The Spokane County Extension SNAP-Ed Program is now closed due to federal funding cuts. We want to thank our team, Amanda, Wendy, Donna, and Renne, for their amazing work. You made a big difference in the lives of children throughout our community. We will miss you, and we wish you the best in your future endeavors.
