(Idaho State) The Idaho Department of Education has published updated lists of Centers and Family Day Care Homes that participate in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP).
CACFP, funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, provides nutritious food to infants, children and adults. Under this federal program, all individuals enrolled in participating day care homes or centers receive meals at no charge. Nearly 200 centers and 21 sponsored family day care home providers in Idaho participate in CACFP.
The amount of money that the USDA will reimburse to each center or home for the meals and snacks provided is determined by each enrolled participant’s family household income. The income eligibility guidelines listed below are used to determine the reimbursement from the USDA for the center or home. Centers or homes with enrolled individuals from households whose monthly income is at or below these levels receive more reimbursement for the meals served to those participating.
Effective Dates July 1, 2024 – June 30, 2025
