In November 2005, Wisconsin was selected to participate as an expansion state in the existing U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program, which was created for the purpose of improving nutrition and reducing the prevalence of childhood overweight and obesity. In conjunction with the last round of student surveys (March, 2007), we used survey instruments to collect data from parents and teachers of
elementary school students participating in the program. This study focuses on quantitative and qualitative responses from teachers and parents as indicators of program effectiveness.
