Child care programs would get 10 cents more per meal to feed kids and adults.
This bill would give child and adult care programs an extra 10 cents for each meal and snack they serve. This means more money for providers to support their meal services. It would also simplify how some day care homes get reimbursed.
Today, meals and supplements served under the Child and Adult Care Food Program receive reimbursements based on existing rates. These rates include specific calculations for certain day care homes. After this bill, each meal and supplement would receive an additional 10 cents in reimbursement. Also, the rules for calculating payments for family or group day care home sponsoring organizations would be simpler.
