## What the grant funds

The purpose of the NOFO is to advance efforts for a nationally integrated food safety system (IFSS) by supporting Manufactured Food Regulatory Program Standards (MFRPS), dietary supplement safety and oversight programs, improved state compliance and enforcement infrastructure, and state Food Protection Task Force (FPTF) programs. The MFRPS are intended to ensure that State manufactured food regulatory programs develop and maintain best practices for a high-quality regulatory program. Also, the program standards are intended to enhance food safety by establishing a uniform basis for measuring and improving the performance of manufactured food regulatory programs in the United States.
