MethodsQualitative telephone interviews with EFNEP supervisors (15), educators (28), and agency partners (15). Template analysis based on the University of Toronto's QoL constructs. ResultsThe EFNEP had a positive impact on 6 of 9 a priori categories: physical being, psychological being, social belonging, community belonging, practical becoming, and growth becoming. Conclusions and ImplicationsThe EFNEP enhances the QoL of its exemplary educators, which suggests that the program's benefits go beyond those documented in participants.
