    Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) and Seamless Summer Option (SSO) - Meal Count Information - Program Period 2020-2021

    Metadata Updated: December 25, 2023

    Help us provide the most useful data by completing our ODP User Feedback Survey for Summer Meal Programs Data

    About the Dataset This dataset combines basic meals served data from the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) and Seamless Summer Option (SSO) Meal Count datasets currently published on the Texas Open Data Portal for 2020-2021 summer meal program operation.

    In March 2020, USDA began allowing flexibility in nutrition assistance program policies in order to support continued meal access should the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) impact meal service operation. This included allowing School Nutrition Program participants to use Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) and Seamless Summer Option (SSO) to serve meals during the school year. Sites participating in these flexibilities are indicated in the COVID Meal Site column of this dataset. For more information on the waivers implemented for this purpose, please visit our website at SquareMeals.org.

    About Dataset Updates Data is updated regularly during the active program season. A final data update will occur at least six months from the close of the active program season after which data will remain published, but static.

    About the Agency The Texas Department of Agriculture administers 12 U.S. Department of Agriculture nutrition programs in Texas including the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs, the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP), and summer meal programs. TDA’s Food and Nutrition division provides technical assistance and training resources to partners operating the programs and oversees the USDA reimbursements they receive to cover part of the cost associated with serving food in their facilities. By working to ensure these partners serve nutritious meals and snacks, the division adheres to its mission — Feeding the Hungry and Promoting Healthy Lifestyles.
