DISCUSSION:
The Child Nutrition Reauthorization Act provides reimbursement for snacks served to children through age
eighteen who are participating in certain after school programs. The programs must be located in low-
income areas and should be designed to provide the types of activities known to reduce or prevent
involvement in juvenile crime. The basic purpose of the program is to provide care for children after the
school day has ended, and the program must provide children with regularly scheduled educational or
enrichment activities in a structured and supervised environment.
The Texas Department of Agriculture has notified the City that funds are available for the Child and Adult
Care Nutrition Program for At-Risk After School Programs. It is projected that 100,000 snacks will be
served to approximately 1,000 children at nineteen community centers operating At-Risk After School
Programs from October 1, 2010, through September 30, 2011. The Community Services Division of the
Parks and Community Services Department will administer the program according to guidelines
established by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Texas Department of Agriculture. Existing staff
administers this program, and the grant does not allow for the inclusion of indirect costs.
This program serves ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
