FNS is pleased to announce the release of the RFA for Child Nutrition Technology Innovation Grants. Funds will be available on a competitive basis to state agencies administering the child nutrition programs.

This collection is a new information collection for the Study of School Food Authority Procurement Practices.

The purpose of this memorandum is to distribute funding allocations out of the total $30 million provided by the Consolidated Appropriations Act 2018, in fiscal year 2018 to state agencies to competitively award equipment assistance grants to eligible school food authorities participating in the NSLP. 

This memorandum provides guidance to state distributing agencies and recipient agencies on the use of market basket analysis in procuring processed end products for USDA Foods in Schools and commercial goods for the National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, Summer Food Service Program, and Child and Adult Care Food Program.
