The Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) received a $373,134 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Child Nutrition-Technology Innovation Grant program (CFDA 10.541). The grant, awarded on September 20, 2023, will fund the implementation of innovative technology solutions to improve accountability, data accuracy, performance measurement, and management capabilities for TDA's administration of various Child Nutrition Programs across Texas. These programs include the National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, Child and Adult Care Food Program, and Summer Food Service Program. The grant will enable TDA to develop and deploy data systems, training delivery tools, and performance tracking solutions to strengthen the delivery of these critical nutrition assistance initiatives statewide. TDA may sub-award portions of the grant to local organizations, such as food banks, schools, and universities, to directly implement the technology-driven improvements within their communities.
