The Center for Agriculture and Food Security and Preparedness (CAFSP) is located at The University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine in Knoxville, TN. Founded in October of 2006, the Center is dedicated to protecting and enhancing the safety of agriculture and the food supply through the conduct of investigation and research, and through the provision of high quality educational and training programs. The Center, under the direction of Dr. Sharon Thompson, combines the expertise of University of Tennessee faculty with other institutions across the country to address current issues related to food defense, food safety, foreign animal diseases, emergency preparedness, and more. The Center serves as a focal point for several key national initiatives to protect agriculture and the food supply from terrorist threats, and to promote safer food production and processing practices.
In 2011, CAFSP was awarded a $6.6 million multi-year grant from the US Food and Drug Administration to support development of a national food safety and training curriculum. CAFSP’s grant, which is designed to address training needs for food and agriculture officials identified in the Food Safety and Modernization Act, is addressing Special Processes at retail, HACCP, and food issues associated with natural and technological disasters. Additional areas of concern to food regulatory officials will be addressed over the course of the five year grant. The trainings developed through this grant are utilizing both web-based and instructor-led courses.
