**NOTE:** You may only edit Program Activities you created in the current reporting period, unless you are a collaborator, editable user, or Data Manager. Contact your Data Manager to access records from previous reporting periods. Organization Data Managers are listed in the [PEARS Directory](/accounts-and-permissions/accounts-and-permissions/directory.md).

**CAUTION:** For Extension organizations, changing the program area may impact existing data. Switching between SNAP-Ed and Extension program areas removes SNAP-Ed Custom Data sections and may delete Evaluation and Demographics data.
