Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010
• Sec. 241: – Replaces 50% match with capped grants;– Allows policy, systems and environmental
supports, with USDA approval of State Plan;
– Bases funds in future years on SNAP participation.

What does change for California look like?
Three years of Transition
2011
* Planning with internal and
external advisors,
stakeholders;
2012
* LHD Model announced;
* Additional year of funds
allocated to all Network;
* New USDA PO.
2013
* Planned federal funds
reductions;
* Plan implementation
252 stakeholders provided input to the NEOPB transition
123 participants who are
Current Network contractors
129 participants who are
not currently Network contractors

(Three-year transition plan) Stakeholder Meeting Demographics
NEOP Branch Proposed Organizational Chart
Program Sections within NEOPB are Local Support, Information and Communication, Partnerships and Resource Development, Research and Evaluation
1) Funds based on the target population
2) Designated Local Lead Agencies (Local Health Departments)
Network Model LHD ModelAgreement Type Contracts Grants
Boundaries Small, Very defined, eg school
Geographic and generally large encompassing many localities, school districts, etc
Populations Served Generally small, defined, sometimes diverse
Large, diverse
Partners Varies but probably limited
Large groups of diverse partners in all sectors including schools, parks and recs, city governments, healthcare organizations, chambers of commerce, business, utilities,
Influence Generally limited if not in size then in scope
Policy, legal, political.
Advantages of the LHD Model
3) Require subcontracts with Community-based Organizations
In 2014, 190 contracts in place with Community-based Organizations (up from 175 in 2013);

4) Implement A Coordinated Blend of Strategies
• Do an assessment of community needs• Collaboratively develop an integrated SNAP-
Ed work plan, • Develop and leverage SNAP-Ed and non
SNAP-Ed funded partnerships that have a cause in common with obesity prevention
5) Establish Statewide Objectives
1) Healthy foods, mostly fruits and vegetables
2) Healthy beverages and water
3) Physical activity
4) Community supports
What is the role of the LHDs?

What is the Role of Media?• To be ahead of the wave (public opinion)• To use the energy at the front of the
wave to pull public opinion forward • To support program goals
FFY 2015 State-wide mass media campaignMulticultural
Vision for Local Health Departments• Improve the environment with policy,
systems, and environmental (PSE) change strategies that is supported and backed up by direct education
Why policy, systems, and environmental changes are Important Outcomes
• Creates demand for and reinforces change in individual and group behavior
• Protects health or the environment• Sets expectations• Maximizes resources• Builds the capacity of local communities• Institutionalizes change

Putting the LHD model into action
Guiding principles for the local integrated work plan• Work plan responds to community needs
and evaluate the work beyond reporting counts.
• Build synergy with funded and unfunded partners and leverage existing resources
• Be a model for SNAP-Ed delivery by developing strategic partnerships to widen the sphere of influence in the community

Looking at the Layers
SNAP-Ed
County Profiles
-Secondary analysis of data
-Used as starting point
-Uniform data for all
jurisdictions
Populating our County Map
1. Draw your county map on a flip chart—fill the page
2. Each LIA will populate the county map with the activities they provide in each intervention strategy area
• Look at the color key for intervention strategy areas
• Write each of your activities on the post-it note intervention that it most supports
• Include the name of the program, location, and target population
• Put your program initials at the bottom right hand corner of each post it
3. Place your post it notes on the map to indicate it’s location in the county

Policy, Systems, Environmental (PSE) Change Evaluation with RE-AIM framework
A framework for planning and evaluating PSE intervention
• R – Reach • A – Adoption• I – Implementation• E – Effectiveness• M – Maintenance
Core RE-AIM IndicatorsIntegrated with
WRO SNAP-ED Evaluation
Framework
http://snap.nal.usda.gov/snap/WesternRegionEvaluationFramework.pdf
REACH• # and % of all people • Did you reach your target audience?
• Example: # of people and % of the target population affected--representative and most at risk– # of people shopping at farmers’ markets in low-
income area
Adoption• # and % of settings that decided to initiate a
program or policy, systems, or environmental change strategy?
• Did the community decide the PSE was something they wanted to take on?
• Did the community choose to put the PSE into place?
• Example: The # and % of settings participating-- appropriateness of settings (and partners) for reaching/engaging the target population – # of farmers’ markets established
Implementation• # and % of settings, organizations,
communities that put into place activities with fidelity
• Was the intervention delivered as intended?
• Example: Change is implemented as intended; fidelity – # of farmers participating in farmers’ markets each
week– Quality, price, and variety of fruits and vegetables
sold at farmers market
Effectiveness (Efficacy)• What was the impact of the intervention
on outcomes (short, medium, or long-term)?
• What worked well? What didn’t work well?
• Example: Short term outcomes--actual environmental changes; intermediate outcomes-- effects on health behaviors – Local sales of fruits and vegetables as reported by
participating farmers
Maintenance• What is the extent a PSE has been
institutionalized?
• Example: Individual level – individuals continue to exhibit the desired health behavior changes. Setting level – environmental change is maintained. New barriers to use are prevented or mitigated.– # of farmers’ markets that were established yearly, #
that continue to operate; EBT accepted; bonus incentive programs continue
