## Food and Nutrition Service

*Title:*                     Food and Nutrition Service Evaluation of the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP).                

*OMB Control Number:*                     0584-NEW.                

*Summary of Collection:*                     The Food, Conservation and Energy Act of 2008 (the Farm Bill) (Pub. L. 110-246) expanded the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) nationwide and directed the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) to conduct an evaluation resulting in a report to Congress in September 2011. The FFVP administered by FNS has the broad goal of fighting childhood obesity and improving overall diet quality by teaching children healthier eating habits. Increased consumption of fruits and vegetables has been found to reduce long-term obesity risk. Specific objectives of the FFVP are: To create healthier school environments by providing healthier food choices; to expand the variety of fruits and vegetables children experience; to increase children's fruit and vegetable consumption; and to make a difference in children's diets to impact their present and future health.                

*Need and Use of the Information:*                     The evaluation of the FFVP has two main objectives: (1) To examine how the FFVP is currently being implemented, and (2) to estimate program impacts on participating students. To address these objectives, FNS has 36 research questions that will be grouped into six broad research categories for the evaluation. The information gathered in the data collection activities will be used by FNS to determine if students at FFVP schools have higher fresh fruits and vegetable consumption than students at non-participating schools, and whether FFVP induced other dietary changes such as decreased consumption of less nutritious foods among students.                

*Description of Respondents:*                     State, Local, or Tribal Government; Individuals or households.                

*Number of Respondents:*                     18,854.                

*Frequency of Responses:*                     Recordkeeping;                     *Report:*                     Annually.                

*Total Burden Hours:*                     8,478.
