摘要：A focus group of Somali immigrants was conducted as part of a larger study of underserved communities in Minnesota. The goal was to capture Somali women's personal experiences and views on nutrition. This understanding assists Health and Nutrition educators in assessing the quality and effectiveness of current programming efforts and making recommendations for future efforts.

One important finding was that participants were eager to learn about nutrition and asked specific questions about the nutritional value of foods they eat.
