This is a new information collection.
In recognition of the importance of nutrition and physical activity
in child care, Congress directed the U.S. Department of Agriculture
to conduct a Study on Nutrition and Wellness Quality of Childcare
Settings in Section 223 of the Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act (HHFKA)
of 2010. The Congressionally mandated study assesses four key
topics: (1) nutritional quality of foods offered, (2) physical
activity, (3) sedentary activity, and (4) barriers to and
facilitators of nutritional quality, physical activity, and
participation by child care centers and family day care homes in
the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP).
This is a new information
collection for a study mandated by Congress in Section 223 of the
Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act (HHFKA) of 2010. As a result, this
information collection will add 16,237 burden hours and 28,735
responses to OMB's information collection inventory as a program
change.
