Did anyone else get info on this? I signed up to do some Top Star training and I received this email today. It sounds amazing but all the rules on these grants are a bit bewildering sometimes. Has anyone else done/is doing this?
Hello Providers,
Below is a USDA, Team Nutrition Grant opportunity. Please look into this and see if it is something you would be interested in. There will be webinars taking place tomorrow March 14th and again on Monday the 20th.
On Monday, March 6, 2017, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) released the Request for Applications (RFA) for the FY 2017 Team Nutrition Training Grants program. USDA expects to award up to $5.6 million in grant funding to State agencies that administer the National School Lunch Program (NSLP), School Breakfast Program (SBP), and Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP).
State agencies applying for a FY 2017 Team Nutrition Training Grant may request up to $500,000 in funding for use during a 3-year grant period.
These grants are intended to help schools and child care providers provide appealing and nutritious meals, nutrition education, and school environments that help children maximize their potential and get the nutrients they need for health, growth, and learning. Grant activities must be sustainable and achieve measurable outcomes.
