Rescinding USDA Policy Memo Relating to ADC

This Management Bulletin (MB) provides updated guidance relating to the adult day care component of the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP). Congress issued guidance relating to adult day care immediately following the addition of the adult day care component to CACFP. Since that time, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has incorporated much of the guidance into the CACFP regulations, thereby making the USDA memoranda obsolete. In addition, the USDA has changed some regulations related to adult day care agencies that are not reflected in previous guidance from USDA.

Background

The adult day care component of the CACFP was authorized by the Older Americans Act Amendments of 1987 and codified in Title 7, Code of Federal Regulations , Section 226.19(a).

The remaining previous USDA memoranda related to the adult day care component of CACFP were consolidated, updated, and clarified by the following two memoranda:

• Participant Eligibility in the Adult Day Care Component of the Child and Adult Care Food Program, August 7, 2012
• Center Eligibility and Licensing/Approval in the Adult Day Care Component of the Child and Adult Care Food Program, August 7, 2012

The CDE has issued USDA-CACFP-19-2012 and USDA-CACFP-22-2012 to address the guidance in the above two new USDA policy memos. These MBs may be viewed on the CACFP MB Web page at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/nu/cc/mb.asp .
