FRAC Applauds USDA for New Investments in School Meals Amid Recent Supply Chain Disruptions
WASHINGTON, December 17, 2021 — The Food Research & Action Center (FRAC) applauds the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) for providing much-needed assistance to help schools respond to supply chain disruptions.
This funding will help school meal program operators offset recent challenges with supply chain issues and accelerate their efforts to provide continued support to families experiencing food insecurity, especially for Black, Latinx, and Native American households who have been disproportionately impacted by the pandemic.
