About the Dataset

This dataset contains meal reimbursements to Contracting Entities (CEs) sponsoring Seamless Summer Option sites for summer 2022 (SNP program year 2021-2022). Data reported represents the latest claims that have been paid or approved to pay as of the data update date. Participants have 60 days to file monthly claims. Summer feeding programs operate mid-May through the end of August.

In March 2020, USDA began allowing flexibility in nutrition assistance program policies in order to support continued meal access should the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) impact meal service operation. This included early operation of the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) and Seamless Summer Option (SSO). Sites participating in these flexibilities are indicated in the newly added COVID Meal Site column of this dataset. For more information on the waivers implemented for this purpose, please visit our website at SquareMeals.org.

This dataset contains sponsor-level meal reimbursements. Site-level meal counts are reported in the “Summer Meal Programs – Seamless Summer Option (SSO) – Meal Counts” dataset for the program year.
