NDRN Joins Organizations to Urge Congress to Extend School Nutrition Waivers

The National Disability Rights Network joined other organizations to urge Congress to extend waiver authorities for the COVID-19 school nutrition rules granted to USDA through the upcoming school year. These waivers for school nutrition programs, granted in the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, have provided districts across the country with the flexibility to deliver meal services to kids even when schools are operating on modified schedules or in non-traditional settings.
