Board of Director Elections

We are excited to share the slate of nominees for the National CACFP Sponsors Association Board of Directors. The experience, talent, passion, and commitment these leaders share for the CACFP and our entire community is inspiring. 


Later this month, NCA member organizations which are CACFP sponsors will receive an election announcement, slate of candidates, and official ballot which will need to be returned, postmarked by July 20, 2018. 


2018-2019 Income Eligibility Guidelines


The following are the Income Eligibility Guidelines to be effective from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019. The Department's guidelines for free meals and milk and reduced price meals were obtained by multiplying the year 2018 Federal income poverty guidelines by 1.30 and 1.85, respectively, and by rounding the result upward to the next whole dollar.
