- Older Americans Act Nutrition Program Manual (Orange Manual)
This manual is intended to be a resource for cooks, site managers, contract food service providers and staff who are responsible for providing meals under Title III-C of the Older Americans Act (OAA) of 1965. The Dietary Reference Intakes including the Recommended Dietary Allowances and Dietary Guidelines for Americans drive all federal nutrition policy and programs such as the OAA nutrition program and school meals program. This manual will assist Nutrition Program staff to meet the nutrition requirements and safe food handling standards established by both the Federal government and the State of Vermont.
