Title: Study of Nutrition and Activity
in Child Care Settings II (SNACS–II).
Form Number: N/A.
OMB Number: Not Yet Assigned.
Expiration Date: Not Yet Determined.
Type of Request: New Collection.
Abstract: The Child and Adult Care
Food Program (CACFP), administered
by the U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA) Food and Nutrition Service
(FNS), provides reimbursement for
nutritious meals and snacks served to
eligible children enrolled in
participating child care programs.
Reimbursable meals and snacks must
meet CACFP’s meal pattern
requirements.
SNACS–II is the second
comprehensive, nationally
representative assessment of CACFP
providers and the infants, children, and
teens they serve. It will update the
picture of the CACFP after updated meal

pattern requirements went into effect in
October 2017. Under the updated
requirements, CACFP meals and snacks
must include a wider variety of fruits
and vegetables, more whole grains, and
less added sugar and saturated fat. The
updated requirements are also designed
to encourage breastfeeding.
SNACS–II will collect data in program
year 2022–2023 to address eight broad
objectives: (1) CACFP provider
characteristics, (2) nutritional quality of
foods offered, (3) children’s dietary
intakes, (4) children’s physical activity
and household characteristics, (5)
CACFP plate waste, (6) teens’ physical
activity and household characteristics,
(7) infants’ dietary intakes and physical
activity while in care, and (8) the cost
to produce CACFP meals and snacks.
SNACS–II will largely replicate the
methods used in the first Study of
Nutrition and Activity in Child Care
Settings because comparing key
outcomes at the two points in time is an
important focus of the study. SNACS–II
will collect data from nationally
representative samples of CACFP
providers, including family day care
homes, child care centers, Head Start
centers, at-risk afterschool centers, and
outside-school-hours care centers;
infants, children, and teens; and
parents/guardians. To address the array
of research questions under the eight
study objectives, the data collection
activities to be undertaken subject to
this notice include the following:
• The Provider Survey and
Environmental Observation Form will
be used to describe the characteristics of
CACFP providers.
• The Menu Survey will be used to
assess the nutritional quality of foods
offered.
• The Meal Observation Booklet and
the Automated Self-Administered 24Hour dietary recall interview (ASA24)
will be used to describe children’s
dietary intakes.
• The Parent Interview and Height
and Weight Form collect data on
children’s physical activity and
household characteristics.
• The Food and Physical Activity
Experiences Survey and Teen Parent
Interview collect data on teens’ physical
activity and household characteristics.
• The Infant Menu Survey will be
used to assess the nutrition quality of
foods offered to infants. The Infant
Intake Form collect information on
infants’ dietary intakes while in care.
• The Pre-Visit Cost Interview, PreVisit Cost Form, Sponsor/Center Cost
Interview, Center Director Cost
Interview, Center Food Service Cost
Interview, and Self-Administered Cost
Questionnaire collect information on

respondent and may include study
notification and recruiting or data
collection. FNS anticipates that
approximately 11,677 of these
individuals will respond to initial
contact, and 6,382 will not respond.
Some who respond to the initial contact
may subsequently become
nonrespondents to one or more
components of the data collection. The
number of unique respondents expected
to provide data for the study is 10,157
(25 from State and local government,
3,997 from for-profit and not-for-profit

Level Review Lane. Additionally, the
information collected is used to
schedule a telephonic informal
conference, when requested.
This is revision to the form. Changes
include significant revisions to the
instructions section to make them easier
to understand. New sections were added
to the form to provide clarify and easier
completion: Claimant’s Identification
Information, Benefit Type, SOC/SSOC
Opt-In from Legacy Appeals System,
and Authorized Representative
Signature. The section on requesting
informal conferences was edited to
make it easier to understand and
complete. Examples were added to the
Issues for Higher-Level Review section.
Formatting changes were made to
simplify the form. Optical character
recognition boxes were added to assist

study objectives, the data collection activities to be undertaken
subject to this notice include the following:
The Provider Survey and Environmental Observation Form
will be used to describe the characteristics of CACFP providers.
The Menu Survey will be used to assess the nutritional
quality of foods offered.
The Meal Observation Booklet and the Automated Self-
Administered 24-Hour dietary recall interview (ASA24) will be used to
describe children's dietary intakes.
The Parent Interview and Height and Weight Form collect
data on children's physical activity and household characteristics.
The Food and Physical Activity Experiences Survey and Teen
Parent Interview collect data on teens' physical activity and household
characteristics.
The Infant Menu Survey will be used to assess the
nutrition quality of foods offered to infants. The Infant Intake Form
