About the company

A Better Choice Childcare Center, Inc., a woman-owned, minority-owned (Black American-owned) for-profit childcare center based in Memphis, Tennessee, operates exclusively as a sub-recipient on federal child nutrition grants, holding no prime contracts or grants and no awarded federal contract vehicles. All 26 recent federal awards are sub-awards flowing through the Tennessee Department of Human Services as the prime grantee, funded by the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service.

The vendor's federal footprint is entirely concentrated in two linked child nutrition programs: the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) and the Commodity Nutrition (CN) Block Meals Reimbursement program. Since August 2024, A Better Choice has received twenty-six monthly sub-awards — a bimodal cadence of CACFP and CN reimbursements issued by Tennessee DHS on behalf of USDA's Food and Nutrition Service. Representative recent sub-awards include CACFP CIL (Child and Adult Care Food Program Child and Infant Lunch) reimbursements and CN Block Meals Reimbursement allocations dated May 2026, April 2026, March 2026, February 2026, and January 2026, each flowing through the Tennessee Department of Human Services. The combined dollars obligated across all twenty-six awards total $190 thousand, reflecting the reimbursement-based structure of child nutrition grant sub-awards rather than large service contracts.

Activity has grown from two awards in 2024 to fourteen in 2025, with ten awards recorded for 2026 through the most recent entry in May. The vendor serves a single federal customer — the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service — through the state intermediary (Tennessee DHS). A Better Choice's role is that of a participating childcare provider in federally funded child nutrition programs, receiving monthly reimbursements for meals served to eligible children under CACFP and commodity block funding, rather than operating as a service contractor or prime recipient managing federal grants.
