Certification of Compliance With Meal Requirements for the National School Lunch Program Under the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has finalized a rule requiring states to certify school food authorities that meet meal pattern and nutrition standards to receive performance-based cash assistance under the National School Lunch Program. The changes, which were first proposed in 2012, align with the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 and aim to streamline the certification process.
