UPDATE: The memorandum has been rescinded.

President Trump's recent memorandum has raised concerns about federal funding, including its impact on child nutrition programs. While there are still many unanswered questions, we are actively monitoring the situation and believe child nutrition programs will continue to be funded. At the National CACFP Association, our commitment remains the same - to advocate for and support those who rely on child nutrition programs. We will continue to share updates as we learn more.
