FNS Documents & Resources

USDA’s goal across all summer nutrition programs is simple: Connect children with nutritious food during the summer months to help them grow and thrive. The interim final rule published this week is an important step forward in increasing access to these services

FNS partnered with the Michigan State agency and Code For America to provide an update on Summer EBT as part of the USDA Child Nutrition State Agency Meeting. The presentation provided an overview of available guidance and resources and facilitated a panel discussion about implementation challenges and solutions.

This document describes the methods by which Summer EBT agencies conduct verification for Summer EBT applications.

This collection is a new collection that combines the School Nutrition and Meal Cost Study-II (SNMCS–II), School Food Purchase Study-IV (SFPS–IV), and a second Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program Evaluation (FFVP–II) into one coordinated effort named the 2024–25 National School Foods Study.

For FY 24, states, territories and ITOs must clearly attest that non-federal funds have been identified and are available to meet the 50 percent match requirement.
