Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to test the potential efficacy of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Education (SNAP-Ed) among Bhutanese refugee adults residing in New Hampshire. The main questions are whether direct SNAP-Ed delivered through 6 lessons affects dietary quality and biomarkers of metabolic risk. Participants in the SNAP-Ed arm will be asked to participate in weekly lessons delivered in their homes by a bicultural and bilingual nutrition educator. Individuals in the control group did not receive SNAP-ED. All participants will be asked to complete surveys and provide blood and fecal samples prior at baseline and at the end of the study period (7 to 8 weeks).
