The purpose of this memorandum is to clarify the WIC blood lead screening provision reflected in the FY 2001 WIC Appropriations Act.
The Agricultural Risk Protection Act of 2000 (PL 106-224) made a significant change to the procedures involved in terminating the participation in the Child and Adult Care Food Program of an institution or a day care home determined to be seriously deficient. Specifically, these new procedures will require a change in the effective date of the termination and the flow of CACFP funds prior to the termination.
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.
This memorandum permits sponsors to consider children 18 years of age and younger who participate in the Job Training Partnership Act program as categorically eligible for the Summer Food Service Program.
CACFP benefits have been extended to include meal services to children who reside with their families in emergency shelters, under the National School Lunch Act. Because the circumstances of an emergency shelter are so different from any other type of CACFP institution, we thought it would be helpful to share these questions and our responses.
The purpose of this memorandum is to clarify FNS policy regarding breast milk from a human milk bank as an allowable substitute for WIC-eligible formulas.
Several provisions in this law affect the administration of CACFP. We intend to publish regulations to implement these provisions as soon as possible. However, except as noted below, these provisions must be implemented in accordance with the statutory effective date. This memorandum provides guidance for state agencies to use until final rules are published.
This is to provide policy regarding federal approval requirements for state development and implementation of EBT systems for the WIC program. EBT systems in the WIC program encompass a wide spectrum of functions including the automation of the food benefit issuance and redemption process as well as exchange of client data.
The purpose of this policy memorandum is to clarify federal statutory and regulatory limitations on the use of technical evaluation requirements for invitations for bid for infant formula rebate contracts.
The Immigration and Naturalization Service confirms that use of WIC benefits does not render an alien a public charge, that benefits should not be denied to aliens who have used WIC, and that INS should not request that aliens repay any WIC benefits received.
