Fiscal Analysis
The bill would amend the Agriculture Code to create a nutrition outreach program to be administered by the Department of Agriculture (TDA). The bill would amend the Education Code to create a grant program to public school campuses for best practices in nutrition education to be administered by TDA. The bill would amend the Human Resources Code to create a grant program to be administered by TDA to participants in the Child and Adult Care Food Program, Head Start Program, or other early childhood education programs to operate nutrition education programs; and to community and faith-based initiatives that provide recreational, social, volunteer, leadership, mentoring, or developmental programs to incorporate nutrition education into programs provided for children. The bill would cap the appropriation for the change in law regarding these programs at $4 million. The bill would take effect immediately if it receives a vote of two-thirds of all members elected to each house; otherwise it would take effect September 1, 2009.
