The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is offering this grant to bolster the national food safety system. This initiative aims to foster stronger interagency collaboration and enhance states’ regulatory and surveillance programs for manufactured foods, while also promoting the Manufactured Food Regulatory Program Standards (MFRPS) through research. Additionally, this grant establishes a crucial funding mechanism for state and territorial agencies primarily responsible for regulating Grade ‘A’ milk or molluscan shellfish. These sub-awards will facilitate essential training, equipment purchases, and other vital priorities necessary for the effective implementation of the Grade ‘A’ Milk Safety program and the National Shellfish Sanitation Program (NSSP) within their respective jurisdictions, thereby improving public health protection.
