TDA has created a new page on SquareMeals that contains archived complete Program handbooks dating back to Program Year 2023. These resources will allow Program operators in the appeal process to access the handbooks that were current for the review period in question. Note that archived handbooks are meant for informational use only - they must not be used to guide current program operation. Current handbooks are available on the applicable Program Policy/Handbook page.
The Appeals Resources page can be accessed from the left-side menu of each Program page or directly on this page.
