Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) Mobile Route Maker

This tool is primarily a routing tool for Summer meal sponsors, vendors and State agencies that is overlaid on the Capacity Builder. Routing is especially important for less densely populated areas, such as rural areas. This tool will help a variety of audiences allocate resources efficiently and in a cost effective way. Sponsors can identify potential summer sites for mobile feeding by identifying gaps in service in the neediest areas, plan the most efficient monitoring routes, and find routes to local food vendors to create fresh local meals (http://www.fns.usda.gov/farmtoschool/farm-summer). In addition self-prep central kitchens and vendors can find the best route to deliver meals to each Summer meal site. State agencies can also use this tool to plan the most efficient monitoring routes throughout the summer.
