Food and Nutrition Service 

Title: 2023 Pulse Survey: Operational 

Challenges in Child Nutrition Programs. 

OMB Control Number: 0584–NEW. 

Summary of Collection: FNS 

administers the Child Nutrition (CN) 

Programs in partnership with States, 

local SFAs, other program sponsors, and 

local program operators. Section 28(a) of 

the Richard B. Russell National School 

Lunch Act authorizes the U.S. 

Department of Agriculture Secretary to 

conduct annual national performance 

assessments of the school meal 

programs and requires States and local 

entities participating in the programs to 

cooperate with program research and 

evaluations. FNS plans to collect 

periodic data to obtain information on 

operational challenges facing 

institutions who operate or administer 

child nutrition programs, including 

State agencies, SFAs and Summer Food 

Service Program (SFSP) Sponsors. The 

Operational Challenges in Child 

Nutrition Programs (OCCNP) Surveys, 

are designed to collect timely data on 

emerging school food service 

operational challenges, including but 

not limited to supply chain disruptions, 

food costs, and labor shortages, and/or 

related issues in SY 2023–2024, 2024– 

2025, and SY 2025–2026. 

Need and Use of the Information: 

Access to a timely and reliable source of 

data on these topics has become 

particularly important following the 

COVID–19 pandemic. In addition to 

changing the ways that school meal 

programs operated, the pandemic has 

contributed to lasting supply chain 

issues and substantial changes in the 

cost and availability of food and labor. 

The ability to collect this data will allow 

FNS to provide the best possible 

support to States and program sponsors 

and operators facing continued food 

service operations challenges and 

enable FNS to respond more quickly 

and effectively to potential disruptions 

in the future.
