Changing CACFP State Policy: A Colorado Case Study

Colorado is working across state agencies and with community members and advocates to ensure equitable eligibility processes for CACFP in the state. That starts with ensuring Family, Friend, and Neighbor (FFN) providers and the children in their care can access the CACFP. Explore Colorado's journey to create change and hear how it could work in your state.

  1. Understand the potential to increase eligibility and access to CACFP.
  2. Learn about Colorado's process for change and coalition building.
  3. Review the perceived risks of FFNs accessing CACFP and how to mitigate them.
