New competency model supports the growing workforce of professionals leading nutrition-focused environmental and systems change (AUDIO)
Caption
Sarah Misyak, PhD, MPH, Virginia Tech, discusses a recent study that outlines a set of core competencies designed to support professionals implementing policy, systems, and environmental (PSE) change initiatives in SNAP-Ed. Developed through a participatory process with experienced practitioners, the framework addresses the unique demands of systems-level public health work. The authors suggest that integrating these competencies into SNAP-Ed and other community nutrition workforce development strategies will help reduce employee burnout, clarify expectations, and ultimately enhance program impact.
