USDA-FNS-CNTN-FY2014: Up to $5.5 million is anticipated in Fiscal Year 2014 for TN Training Grants. Approximately $2.5 million will be set aside to provide non-competitive grants (up to $50,000) to State agencies that commit to specific strategies to increase the number of schools implementing Smarter Lunchroom strategies. Up to $350,000 may be requested through a competitive grants process. State agencies wishing to apply for both a competitive and a non-competitive grant may apply for up to $350,000, cumulatively. For example, a State may apply for a $50,000 non-competitive grant, but they would then only be eligible to apply for up to $300,000 in competitive funding; the maximum amount a State may request is $350,000. The submission of an application for a non-competitive grant guarantees funding, provided the application meets all the required criteria. The submission of an application for a competitive grant does NOT guarantee funding for a competitive grant.Both competitive and non-competitive TN Training Grants will be funded for the period of September 30, 2014- September 30, 2016. Funding for approved TN Training Grants will be provided through the Grant Award/Letter of Credit process, in the same manner as other Federal funds, upon receipt of a properly executed Federal-State TN Training Grant Agreement and subject to availability of funding.
