This grant, offered by federal agencies, aims to significantly advance the creation of a nationally integrated food safety system. Its primary goal is to help retail food regulatory programs achieve and maintain conformance with the Voluntary National Retail Food Regulatory Program Standards (VNRFRPS), also known as Retail Program Standards. These crucial standards apply to the operation and management of retail food programs, specifically targeting the reduction of risk factors known to cause or contribute to foodborne illnesses. The initiative also emphasizes promoting active managerial control over these risks. Through cooperative agreements, this funding will support regulatory food retail programs in developing, implementing, and enhancing the essential infrastructure necessary to fully comply with and sustain conformance with the VNRFRPS, ultimately improving public health outcomes.
