The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service awarded the VA State Board of Health $567,388 on October 1, 2025, under the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CFDA 10.558), a formula grant providing reimbursements for nutritious meals and snacks to eligible children and adults enrolled in participating child care centers, day care homes, and adult day care facilities. The award supports CACFP sponsor administration activities in Virginia, with performance through September 30, 2027. The VA State Board of Health, operating through its Office of Emergency Preparedness & Response Programs division, administers CACFP at the state level, entering into written agreements with USDA Food and Nutrition Service and managing compliance, institution approvals, grievance procedures, and audit oversight for participating care institutions across the Commonwealth. The organization distributes substantial sub-award funding to local health departments, community-based organizations, and service providers across Virginia's public health regions to support nutrition program operations and compliance.
