Alliance for Advancing a National Integrated Food Safety System (U18)

The goal of this funding opportunity is to facilitate long-term improvements to the national food safety system by strengthening interagency collaboration, improving States' regulatory and surveillance protection programs for manufactured foods, and providing assistance to state legislatures. This will be accomplished through the provision of funding for program improvement and will require extensive cooperation and coordination with FDA program offices. Effective leveraging of resources and harmonization of efforts will require collaboration with relevant initiatives, including those of federal partners, national initiatives and associations, state, and local partners.
