The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service awarded the Sac & Fox Nation $1.194 million for food distribution logistics under the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR, CFDA 10.567), effective October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2027.
The award funds the Sac & Fox Nation to administer FDPIR operations serving income-eligible tribal households on and near the reservation in Stroud, Oklahoma. Under FDPIR, the Nation certifies eligible households, orders from a USDA Foods list exceeding 100 domestically purchased items (frozen and canned proteins, legumes, grains, dairy, produce, and oils), and distributes monthly food packages tailored to household size according to federal guide rates. Many tribal households use FDPIR as an alternative to SNAP due to limited access to SNAP offices or authorized retailers. The Nation maintains household case files and program records for three years following fiscal year close and is responsible for certifying households within seven days of application (one day for expedited services).
