Who Qualifies for CACFP?
One of the biggest advantages of CACFP is its inclusivity. All children from infancy through age 12 are eligible to participate, regardless of family income.
Additionally, children with special needs are eligible without age restrictions, ensuring continued access to nutritious meals. In some cases, providers may even be able to claim their own residential children.
This flexibility makes the program accessible and beneficial for a wide range of families and providers.

How CACFP Supports Child Care Providers
Participating in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) offers valuable financial support for child care providers. Through the program, providers receive monthly reimbursement for serving nutritious meals and snacks to the children in their care.
Reimbursements can be claimed for up to two meals and one snack—or two snacks and one meal—per child, per day. This support helps offset food costs while encouraging healthy eating habits.
It’s a simple way to invest in both your business and the well-being of the children you serve.

What Is the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP)?
The Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) is a federally funded initiative designed to support the health and well-being of children in care settings. Operated through the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) under its Food and Nutrition Services Program, CACFP plays an important role in ensuring children receive balanced, nutritious meals throughout the day.
At its core, the program helps child care providers offer healthy meals and snacks to the children they serve. By promoting proper nutrition early in life, CACFP supports growth, development, and lifelong healthy habits.
Locally, Solano Family & Children’s Services (SFCS) proudly sponsors the Food Program in Solano and Napa counties. Through this partnership, family child care homes receive guidance, resources, and support to meet nutrition standards and provide quality meals to children in their care.
CACFP is more than just a food program—it’s a commitment to nurturing healthier communities by starting with the youngest members.
