CORONAVIRUS
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) released Policy Memorandum SP 08-2020 titled Child Nutrition Program Meal Service during Novel Coronavirus Outbreaks. Please see Q&A (SP 08-2020 A1).
The Wisconsin School and Community Nutrition Teams will be requesting permission from USDA to waive the requirements for serving meals in a congregate setting and the requirement to serve meals at a non-school site (for COVID-19 related meal service operations) for both the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) and the National School Lunch’s Seamless Summer Option (SSO).
