Technical Assistance and the Local School Wellness Policy Interagency Workgroup
 

USDA's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) is working with the Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools of the Department of Education and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, acting through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This Interagency Workgroup will continue to provide information and technical assistance to state and local educational agencies and school food authorities to meet these new local school wellness policy requirements.

This Interagency Workgroup has published a 5-year technical assistance plan, which will be updated upon the completion of a needs assessment (including additional stakeholder consultations). State agencies should direct any questions about this plan to their FNS Regional Office.
