Attachment B - Product Information Sheet and USDA Foods and Database Survey - Outreach Email to Regions

OMB Number: 0584-0611

Expiration Date: 11/30/2025

 

Dear Regional Offices, 

FNS national office is interested in collecting voluntary feedback on the resources available to learn more about USDA Foods in Schools products, including USDA Foods in Schools Product Information Sheets and the USDA Foods Database. We have developed a survey to better understand how these resources are currently utilized and identify potential opportunities for improvement.

The intended audience for this survey is state agencies and school food authorities operating the National School Lunch Program, including school districts, individual schools, and contracted foodservice management companies. Regional offices do not need to complete the survey or take any action at this time.

We will send a link to the survey directly to state agencies with a request that they further distribute the survey to the appropriate entities. The data from this survey will be used internally for general service improvement, to help determine the future of these two resources, and ensure USDA Foods product information is being presented in a way that is most useful to stakeholders.

Please direct any questions about the survey to the USDA Foods inbox at USDAFoods@usda.gov.

Sincerely, 

Katie O’Donnell
