FNS Documents & Resources

This memorandum provides guidance to state agencies regarding the treatment of National Flood Insurance Payments in determining the eligibility of households for participation in FDPIR, CSFP or TEFAP.

The purpose of this Instruction is to establish and convey policy and provide guidance and direction to the USDA Food and Nutrition Service and its recipients and customers, and ensure compliance with and enforcement of the prohibition against discrimination in all FNS nutrition programs and activities, whether federally funded in whole or not. 

FDD has received several complaints recently about dried fruit and grain products that became infested in storage. Therefore, it is imperative that dried fruit and grain products are distributed to the end user as soon as possible after receipt from the vendor to avoid problems with infestation.

State agencies apply for reimbursement using Form FSA-21, submitted to the appropriate FNS regional office for approval. 

This memorandum is intended to provide Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children and Commodity Food Program state agencies with guidance for more effective management of these programs in areas where both WIC and CSFP operate.
