Title: Expressing support for the designation of the third week of March 2025 as "National CACFP Week".
Status: Submitted in House
Introduced: March 18, 2025
The purpose of this House resolution is to express support for the designation of the third week of March 2025 as "National CACFP Week". The CACFP (Child and Adult Care Food Program) is a federal program that provides nutritious meals and snacks to children and adults in day care, afterschool, and other care settings. This resolution aims to raise awareness of the CACFP and its important role in promoting food security and healthy eating habits.
This resolution would primarily affect:
- Children and adults enrolled in day care, afterschool, and other care programs that participate in the CACFP
- CACFP providers, including day care centers, family day care homes, afterschool programs, and adult day care centers
- Families and communities that benefit from the nutritious meals and snacks provided through the CACFP
The designation of National CACFP Week would help raise awareness of the program and its importance in ensuring food security and promoting healthy eating habits for vulnerable populations.
This resolution has been submitted in the House of Representatives. If passed, it would express the House's support for the designation of the third week of March 2025 as National CACFP Week. The resolution would then be sent to the President, who would be encouraged to issue a proclamation recognizing the week. The observance of National CACFP Week would take place in March 2025.
