Title: Food Distribution Programs Improving Access and Parity | |
Abstract:
This proposed rulemaking will amend regulatory provisions at 7 CFR 250, 251, and 253 to make access and parity improvements within several food distribution programs, including the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP), the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR), The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), and USDA Foods disaster response. Revisions to CSFP regulations (7 CFR 247) will focus on increasing access to the program through the addition of a medical deduction option for income eligibility calculations. Revisions to USDA Foods disaster response regulations (7 CFR 250) will focus on clarifying the requirements for the use of USDA Foods in disaster situations. Revisions to TEFAP regulations (7 CFR 251) will focus on improving access to the program by simplifying requirements for State and local program operators. Revisions to FDPIR program regulations (7 CFR 253) will focus on aligning FDPIR eligibility requirements and improving parity with the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Additionally, this proposed rulemaking will make technical corrections throughout program regulations.
