<span class="s1">The legislature often enacts pilot or grant programs with colleges and universities to test and evaluate innovative ideas, policies, or initiatives on a smaller scale before implementing them statewide or nationally. These programs allow college
leaders and legislators to gather real-world data, assess potential impacts, and make informed decisions based on empirical evidence. Pilot programs also provide colleges an opportunity to collaborate with policymakers, contribute to shaping effective policies,
and demonstrate the feasibility and benefits of new approaches. </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello and Happy Friday, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are excited to announce that the SBCTC received 25 outstanding applications for the Free/Reduced-Price Meal Pilot Program! This was one of the most competitive and innovative application processes we have seen and we would like to thank
each college that submitted an application for their comprehensive an thoughtful proposals. We saw significant diversity across the proposals – some were very developmental, some had significant infrastructure already built-in, some proposed innovative partnerships
with non-profits, K-12 schools, fresh food, and vending, and each of them would certainly bring a lot of value to increasing food security for students.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are pleased to share the following colleges have been selected to participate in the Free/Reduced-Price Meal Pilot Program as outlined in

<p class="MsoNormal">Through reviewing applications, the review committee had the opportunity to see the broader landscape of the system as it relates to food insecurity and college/student needs. Through this shared learning opportunity, we are already planning
activities to support colleges not selected to make a bigger positive impact on increasing food security across our system and state.

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Review Process: <o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The review process for the free/reduced-price meal pilot program aimed to ensure fairness, consistency, and transparency. The review process involved the use of a rubric for evaluating each application and interrater reliability to ensure
a fair and consistent evaluation. The rubric outlined core strategic values, such as current infrastructure and feasibility, community impact, innovation and equity, and sustainability. Each criterion was assigned a rating scale to facilitate assessment. Reviewers,
who are experts in the field, completed a comprehensive training on the rubric. The training ensured that all reviewers have a common understanding of the grant intent, evaluation criteria, and know how to assess each application consistently. Each grant application
was then independently reviewed by multiple reviewers. This helped to minimize individual bias and provided a broader perspective on the strengths and limitations of each application. After completing individual reviews, the reviewers came together to discuss
the applications and compare their assessments. This consensus-building process provided the opportunity to address any discrepancies or variations in scoring. Reviewers engaged in in-depth discussions to clarify differences and reach a consensus on the final
scores. The applications were then ranked based on their scores, and the final selection of four colleges (2 on each side of the Cascade Mountains) for the free/reduced-priced meal pilot program was decided according to the predetermined selection criteria.<o:p></o:p></p>
