As you know, Food and Nutrition Service has been working closely with our many partners and stakeholders to improve service to working families. We are pleased to announce the Administration’s approval of an Agency policy initiative which will enhance program access for low-income working families.
This memorandum is intended to provide regional offices with information to share with state agencies concerning the use of unannounced monitoring visits to child and adult care facilities in the CACFP.
The Child Nutrition Reauthorization Act of 1998 requires CACFP state agencies to distribute WIC benefits and eligibility standards information to child care centers and each family and group day care home.
After issuing a policy memo on January 1999, we received a number of questions regarding the implementation of this new meal service. In an effort to respond to those questions, we provided a first set of questions and answers on Feb. 17, 1999. In response, we are providing you with the attached second set of questions and answers.
This memorandum provides guidance for state agencies to use regarding the participation of emergency shelters which serve homeless children and their families in the Child and Adult Care Food Program and the Summer Food Service Program.
This memorandum addresses a broad range of issues regarding outreach strategies that WIC state and local agencies are encouraged to undertake to assist in identifying, educating, and referring uninsured children to and/or facilitate their enrollment in CHIP or Medicaid.
This policy memorandum clarifies the impact of the new Children's Health Insurance Program on WIC adjunct income eligibility.
The purpose of this policy memorandum is to highlight and strengthen national program policy regarding integrity in the WIC certification process through existing regulatory requirements as well as through new legislative requirements mandated by PL 105-336.
In light of recent concerns related to integrity within the CACFP, and to provide maximum flexibility to state agencies, this memorandum allows the use of 1.5 percent audit funds by state agencies to provide training or technical assistance to CACFP organizations and state staff in program areas where problems are identified during audit or review activities.
On Jan. 14, 1999, we issued a policy memorandum “Reimbursement for Snacks in After School Care Programs (SP 99-4); (CACFP 99-4).” After issuing this policy memo, we received a number of questions regarding the implementation of this new meal service. In an effort to respond to those questions, we have enclosed the first set of questions and answers.
