Title: ●Child and Adult Care Food Program Initiative
Abstract: This rulemaking proposes to incorporate in the Child and Adult Care Food Program regulations several recommendations suggested by the Department's Office of Inspector General as a result of several audits recently conducted. The audits concluded that high levels of noncompliance by sponsors and family day care homes were evident in several areas of Program operations. ^PThe Department also proposes to incorporate in the regulations several recommendations from a State-Federal task Force in the areas of (1) State approval of both new and renewing sponsoring organizations; (2) State oversight of sponsor operations; and (3) training and operational requirements for child care institutions, sponsors of family day care homes, outside-school-hours care centers, and family day care home providers. ^PAs a result of the Task Force's recommendations, this rulemaking also proposes other changes to the CACFP regulations which are intended to streamline the operation of the Program at the State and local levels, improve its integrity, and strengthen oversight control.
