Additional Information of Eligibility:
Planning and Implementation Grant Eligibility: Eligible schools, state and local agencies, Indian tribal organizations, small- and medium-sized agricultural producers or groups of small- and medium-sized agricultural producers, and non-profit entities are eligible to receive planning and implementation grants.

Eligible schools are defined as pre-K-12 School Food Authorities (SFAs), non-profit private schools, charter schools, Indian tribal schools, and others that participate in the National School Lunch or Breakfast Programs.

Eligible SFAs may apply for funding that spans the entire SFA, for a specific group of schools (e.g.

only K-5 schools within an SFA), or for an individual school.

In the case where an SFA exists, the application must come from the SFA, and only one application per SFA is allowed.

Funding is available to support school-based programs only.

If a proposal seeks to increase local foods in the Child and Adult Care Program or the Summer Food Service Program, target sites must be located at a school.

Training Grant Eligibility: Only state and local agencies, Indian Tribal Organizations, small- and medium-sized agricultural producers or groups of small- and medium-sized agricultural producers, and non-profit entities are eligible to receive training grant funds.

Training grants may support projects that impact CACFP and SFSP operators that have sites beyond schools.
