Nutrition Services Incentive Program — CFDA 93.053

NSIP obligations at $813,650,639.95

USAspending.gov records $813,650,639.95 in obligations under CFDA 93.053. Nine hundred twenty-two awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $882,484 per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical meal-cost reimbursement and not a cost per senior. Other Older Americans Act nutrition listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $813,650,639.95.

The assistance-listing title is NUTRITION SERVICES INCENTIVE PROGRAM. CFDA 93.053 is the identifier. Combining 93.053 with congregate or home-delivered meal codes would invent a combined senior-nutrition total this packet does not contain. Read the $813,650,639.95 as the obligation book tagged 93.053 only.

327 recipients across 56 jurisdictions

Three hundred twenty-seven recipients share 922 awards, or about 2.8 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $813,650,639.95 evenly would assign about $2.49 million per recipient. That density is a state-and-area-agency pattern: a mid-size named-organization headcount carrying a few assistance rows. The packet does not list the 327.

Fifty-six jurisdictions in the geographic count cover states plus territories and other coded entities. NSIP dollars follow Older Americans Act nutrition providers, not equal shares. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table. Recipient count is organizational, not a census of meal sites.

Award rows are not a meals census

Among HHS listings, 93.053 is a mid-to-high-row file: 922 awards against 327 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of nutrition programs” and a worse proxy for meals plated. Recipients (327) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (922) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report congregate attendance, home-delivered routes, or commodity pounds. Citing 922 as meals would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $813,650,639.95 stock is the obligation figure from USAspending.gov.

Obligations versus nutrition-incentive outlays

The $813,650,639.95 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Nutrition Services Incentive Program awards — are not in the packet. An aging-nutrition file can show a large obligation stock while meal reimbursements follow service months. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Use CFDA 93.053 to size this nutrition-incentive listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as a meals-served dashboard. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 93.053.

What the 93.053 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a meal-site directory, not a wait-list file, and not a USDA commodity log. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $813,650,639.95. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 922 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 56 jurisdictions is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares of senior nutrition. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid to area agencies on aging.
