SUMMER FOOD SERVICE PROGRAM MAP MACHINE

To help target potential expansion efforts for USDA’s Summer Food Service Program (SFSP), ERS has developed the Summer Food Service Program Map Machine. The interactive web machine combines data on 2001 SFSP sponsors and sites, Census 2000 data on small geographic areas, and school census data.

Users can create maps that allow them to infer at a glance whether SFSP sites are located in areas of the highest need, and whether some Qualified areas have been overlooked. The Map Machine also allows for indepth analysis of program coverage using the underlying data from the three databases.
