Listed in Texas Open Data

Description

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 the 2020 summer meal program season. 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 early operation of the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) and Seamless Summer Option (SSO). 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 .
