Personal Factors and Nutrition Intentions of Participants in a Nutrition Education Program for Limited-Resource Adults in Substance Use Recovery

: Overall, the findings suggest that nutrition-related self-efficacy and current practices influence nutrition intentions of HCYRB participants. Future programs may focus on building participants' nutrition-related confidence during SUR to enhance intentions and eventual behavior change. Such strategies may include programming activities that promote and affirm participants' current positive nutrition-related behaviors (e.g., adequate consumption of water and involvement in physical activity). As participants master these healthy practices throughout the nutrition education experience, they will be more likely to gain confidence and motivation toward continuing the behavior throughout their recovery journey.
