SFSP Desk Review: Background COVID-19: Child Nutrition Response #31 Accommodating public health guidelines Administrative Reviews = desk reviews
Provides social distancing by not visiting sponsors or sites in person
Due to the COVID‐19 Pandemic, the USDA issued Child Nutrition Response #31: Nationwide Waiver of Onsite Monitoring Requirements to allow State Agencies administering SFSP and other child nutrition programs to complete desk reviews in lieu of conducting onsite reviews. Through out this recording, we will reference USDA guidance that has modified additional components of conducting administrative reviews during the pandemic.
SLIDE: COVID‐19 has required that we make changes to our administrative review process to accommodate public health guidelines. This includes conducting desk reviews to provide necessary social distancing by not visiting sponsors or sites in person.

Steps of the Review 1. Review Notification
4
Desk Review Notification
1. CNS Support Staff will email you a formal notice of review Establishes 2 due dates for all required documents Provides the Documentation Checklist
2. Your Reviewer will follow up via email to establish: Week of Review (WOR) for Meal Pattern Assessment Site(s) Selected for Review
The Desk Review Notification comes in two parts. The first is the CNS Support Staff will email you a formal notice of review. This notification establishes 2 due dates for all required documents and provides the documentation checklist. The second piece is the Program Specialist conducting your review will follow up via email to establish the WOR for the Meal Pattern Assessment and the site(s) selected for review.
It is important to discuss with your specialist any barriers you have in your particular situation in meeting the requirements of the desk review. One of the main challenges can be proper technology to scan and upload documentation into WINS or if you are a multi site sponsor, the amount of documentation required to upload. Your specialist will work with you to figure out the best course of action.

Steps of the Review 2. Preparing and Organizing Your Documents
6
SFSP Documentation Checklist
The screen displays the Documentation Checklist that will be emailed out with the AR Notification Letter. The checklist is a comprehensive list of records that must be submitted as part of the review. The checklist is broken into two sections with each section having it’s own corresponding due date. All records must be uploaded into WINS and [email protected] must be notified once this is complete. We will go through each section of the checklist in the following slides.
7
Eligibility Documentation
Meal Distribution Plan Updates Survey submission (if applicable)
Documentation of Parental Consent for Home Deliveries Parent Meal Pick-Up Waiver Procedures Housing Data and/or Income applications (if applicable)
The first section is Eligibility Documentation. ‐ LIST FORMS ON SLIDE Some of these forms may not be applicable depending on how your organization operates. We will go into further detail on each of these forms in the coming slides.
8
Meal Distribution Plan Updates
The Meal Distribution Plan Updates Survey provides us with the most accurate picture of how your SFSP is operating – detailing which waivers are being implemented and how meals are being distributed. The survey should be submitted if the organization updates their meal distribution plan and/or waiver implementation after submission of the Electronic Application Checklist. If the plan submitted with application is accurate, the survey does not need to be submitted.
9
Home Deliveries: Parental Consent
Written Consent must be obtained and retained for home deliveries Emails, Text Messages, Written
Signature
Per USDA guidance, sponsors are required to obtain written, parental consent and verify a household’s address prior to implementing home deliveries. Sponsors must retain this documentation according to record retention requirements. If your organization is doing home deliveries, documentation of parental consent must be submitted as part of the review. Documentation of parental consent may be an email, text message, or handwritten signature from the parent/guardian.
10
Parent Meal Pick-Up Waiver
Sponsors are required to develop a written procedure that meets the following criteria: Ensures meals are distributed to
parents/guardians of eligible children
Prevents the service of duplicate meals
With implementation of the Parent/Guardian Meal Pick‐Up Waiver, Read slide.
If your organization is implementing the Parent Meal Pick‐up Waiver, your procedure must be submitted.
11
Housing Data or Applications
Required only if housing data or income information was used to establish site eligibility.
If any of your sites used housing data, income applications, or a school‐validated roster to establish eligibility, this documentation must be submitted as part of the AR. On the screen are examples of the (CLICK) housing data template and (CLICK) income application. If applications were collected, all applications should be scanned into a single PDF then uploaded into WINS.
12
Training & Marketing

The next section of the review is Training & Marketing. The required materials to be uploaded are: READ SLIDE

SFSP regulations requires all staff, including volunteers, who have a role within the program to be trained on their specific role and Civil Rights annually. If you are a NSLP/CACFP sponsor and staff were trained earlier in the school year on Civil Rights, that training documentation should be submitted. If your organization operated during the school closure and all staff were trained when emergency SFSP began, training documentation from the school closure should be submitted. On the screen is OSPI’s sample training record and attendance sheet and may be an example of what the training documentation your organization has may be. Please note that training documentation must be submitted for all staff at all sites, not just staff at the sites selected for review.
14
Promotional/Marketing Materials May be links to where those can be found, screenshots, or
samples
The Promotional/Marketing materials used to advertise to the community should be submitted. A link to the advertisement on the webiste, a screenshot, or sample of the advertisements are all acceptable forms of documentation. On the screen is one of the free banners that OSPI offered this year to help sponsors promote their program.
15
Food Safety Health Department Notification if implementing multiple days’
distribution and/or home deliveries Food safety instructions provided with meals (if applicable)
The Food Safety section includes the Health Dept. Notification for multiple days' distribution and home deliveries and Food Safety Instructions for meals provided. If your organization is handing out multiple days’ worth of meals at one time and/or doing home deliveries, it was required that the Health Dept be notified of the food safety plan in order to ensure the plan complied with all guidance and addressed all potential food safety concerns. The notification could be an email (like shown on the screen) or a formal letter. In the Electronic Application Checklist, each sponsor certified that they would notify the Health Dept in these circumstances.
If you provide food safety instructions with the meals, please submit a sample of the handout.
16
Claiming Infant Meals -DocumentationCivil Rights
Beneficiary data by racial/ethnic data, if not recorded on the sitereview form
Written procedures established to receive complaints alleging discrimination
Picture of And Justice for All poster at selected sites
The Civil Rights Section includes the review of beneficiary data, procedures established to receive complaints alleging discrimination, and posted And Justice for All posters.
The USDA requires racial/ethnic data to be collected at SFSP sites annually. Typically, sponsors record this information in the space provided on the site review forms. If this is not recorded on the site review forms, please submit the data separately. Each sponsor must have a Civil Rights Complaint Procedure that is made available to all SFSP participants and must be submitted with the AR. OSPI has a sample procedure that may be used by your organization available on our website. The sample procedure is displayed on the screen. Each SFSP site must also display the And Justice for All poster. The USDA has provided guidance that the poster must be displayed at mobile sites as well. For the time being, sponsors are allowed to print the AJFA poster rather than post the regulation sized poster. Please submit photos of where the poster is displayed at the sites selected for review.
