SNA/USDA Webinar: Transitional standards for milk, whole grains, & sodium effective July 1, 2022



May 18, 2022

Welcome back to our next webinar part of SNA’s Back to School webinar series!

SNA is hosting a webinar with USDA’s Food and Nutrition Service (FNS), on the Final Rule: Transitional Standards for Milk, Whole Grains, and Sodium. This final rule is providing schools and their industry partners with the certainty they need for the upcoming school years, while FNS works collaboratively on permanent standards that will build on the progress that has been made over the past decade. The transitional standards established for milk, whole grains, and sodium are practical standards that continue to promote nutrition while reflecting the current realities and challenges schools are facing.

This is a free webinar open to SNA members and non-members. If you enjoy the content and would like to benefit from more free high quality school nutrition webinars, join SNA today!
