There is a role for everyone in Team Nutrition, from the federal level to the local level. The role of USDA's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) is to establish policy, develop and distribute materials, develop partnerships with other federal agencies and national organizations, and promote Team Nutrition's messages through the national media. Our national office is located at:
USDA's Team Nutrition
3101 Park Center Drive, Room 632
Alexandria, VA 22302
Phone: (703) 305-1624
Fax: (703) 305-2549

FNS also has seven regional offices, which work directly with state agencies. They offer assistance in planning and coordinating Team Nutrition activities in specific regions of the country. Please feel free to contact your own regional Team Nutrition Coordinator for information about Team Nutrition activities in your region.

State Child Nutrition Agencies are also partners in making Team Nutrition work. They provide training and technical assistance to School Districts, recruit Team Nutrition Schools, develop partnerships with other state agencies and organizations, and promote Team Nutrition's messages through the media. For state-specific information on Team Nutrition activities, you may contact a State Child Nutrition Director administering the National School Lunch Program (NSLP).
