| 2016-07179 | Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program: Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention Grant Program | Rule | This rule adopts the interim rule implementing the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) nutrition education and obesity prevention grant program with changes as provided in this rule. This rule also amends SNAP regulations to implement section 28 of the Food and Nutrition Act (FNA) of 2008, as added by section 241 of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act (HHFKA) of 2010, to award grants to States for provision of nutrition education and obesity prevention programs. These programs provide services for eligible individuals that promote healthy food choices consistent with the current Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGAs). The rule provides State agencies with requirements for implementing section 28, including the grant award process and describes the process for allocating the Federal grant funding for each State's approved SNAP-Ed plan authorized under the FNA to carry out nutrition education and obesity prevention services each fiscal year. This final rule also implements section 4028 of the Agricultural Act of 2014 (Farm Bill of 2014), which authorizes physical activity promotion in addition to promotion of healthy food choices as part of this nutrition education and obesity prevention program. | 2016-03-31 | 2016 | 3 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/03/31/2016-07179/supplemental-nutrition-assistance-program-nutrition-education-and-obesity-prevention-grant-program | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-03-31/pdf/2016-07179.pdf | Agriculture Department; Food and Nutrition Service | 12,200 | This rule adopts the interim rule implementing the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) nutrition education and obesity prevention grant program with changes as provided in this rule.
