FNS has developed the Growing and Strengthening series, a set of tools that together will help state agencies ensure their SNAP E&T programs are meeting their goals of operating an effective program.
The SNAP E&T Plan Handbook provides guidance to state agencies administering and operating the SNAP E&T program on how to prepare and submit their annual plan to FNS for approval.
The purpose of the SNAP E&T Operations Handbook is to provide states and their partners a roadmap to building a SNAP E&T program that primarily uses third-party providers for the delivery of SNAP E&T services.
The Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 requires USDA to establish nutrition standards for all foods sold in schools — beyond the federally supported meals programs. This new rule carefully balances science-based nutrition guidelines with practical and flexible solutions to promote healthier eating on campus.
The Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act of 2004 authorizes FNS to award $4,000,000 beginning in FY 2005 and for each of the following fiscal years through FY 2009, to state agencies for administrative reviews and training of selected local educational agencies.
