We have received several inquiries regarding the collection of eligibility information during a Provision 2 or Provision 3 cycle.
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.
Apparently, there are still some state agencies and sponsoring organizations which believe that the Agricultural Risk Protection Act of 2000 made substantive changes to the current monitoring requirements for sponsoring organizations. The purpose of this memorandum is to reiterate the information provided to you earlier.
Under this proposed rule, certain afterschool care programs would earn reimbursement for snacks served which meet program requirements.

This proposed rule would amend the regulations for the Special Milk Program for Children, Summer Food Service Program, Child and Adult Care Food Program and the Determination of Eligibility for Free and Reduced Price Meals and Free Milk in Schools relating to the confidentiality of information about individuals who receive free and reduced price meals and free milk.
This memorandum provides guidance for state agencies to implement the statutory changes mandated by PL 106-224, which was signed into law by the President on June 20, 2000.
