Resources for Feeding Children & Youth in Domestic Violence, Homeless Shelters, or Runaway with CACFP

Two resources for educating homeless and domestic violence shelter staff about using federal nutrition dollars to fund food for young clients can be downloaded:

"New Federal Food Funds Available for Meals Served to Children and Youth in Shelters" is a brochure you can download as a PDF file. You can copy and distribute this document to get the word out about using federal nutrition dollars to feed children in shelters.

"The Child and Adult Care Food Program: A Federal Resource for Feeding Homeless Children and Youth" is an easy presentation to teach advocates and shelter providers about the resources available to them. Available in Adobe or PowerPoint format.
