For the first time since the National School Lunch Program began in 1946, school meals have the goal of reflecting the Dietary Guidelines. Children will be eating lunches and breakfasts that are lower in fat and sodium and have more variety. To help meet the goal of healthier children, USDA launched Team Nutrition, an initiative designed to help make implementation of the new policy in schools easier and more successful. To learn more, read both the TN Policy Statements and Team Nutrition's 2004 Action Plan.

For the Training and Technical Assistance component of Team Nutrition, visit the Healthy School Meals Resource System! And, if you're in the Child and Adult Care Food Program, be sure to visit The Child Care Nutrition Resource System.
