FNS Documents & Resources

Adherence to scientific integrity and ensuring that the Agency shares accurate, reliable, and comprehensive information with the public is foundational to FNS. As such, this document outlines the clearance process FNS uses to release its scientific products, such as studies, analyses, evaluations, and journal articles.

I'm New to Farm to School is a place full of resources to help you to get your farm to school program growing. 

In September 2016, FNS awarded Team Nutrition Training Grants to 14 state agencies that administer the USDA’s NSLP, SBP and CACFP. This TNTG cohort was different than previous cohorts because, for the first time, grantees were asked to outline a plan to evaluate some or all of the interventions they would implement with grant funding.

The report describes the project goals and strategies, provides a general description of each grantee, and gives a synopsis of project performance. 

This report documents the extent to which CFBOs and the public entities that received food stamp outreach grants in 2001 and 2002 sustained their outreach projects up to three years beyond the funding period, challenges faced in sustaining their projects, and the factors contributing to their sustainability.

This report analyzes the findings from North Carolina’s Vehicle Exclusion Limit Demonstration, which excluded one vehicle per household, regardless of value, from the Food Stamp Program’s countable asset limit. Under current law, for most families, only the first $4,650 of the first vehicle’s value is excluded. Some have argued that because a reliable vehicle is often required to find and hold a job, the entire value of the first vehicle should be excluded.
