CACFP Town Hall Follow-up

Sent to DCC Listserv January 10, 2023

Good afternoon,

First, DCC would like to apologize for this afternoon’s town hall.  We are diligently working to identify ways to keep this from happening in the future.

Attached you will find a copy of Elizabeth Fiehler’s presentation about the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP).   You may also find more information about CACFP by visiting Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) Homepage – Kentucky Department of Education.  If you have questions about CACFP, you may contact Ms. Fiehler at Elizabeth.Fiehler@education.ky.gov.

The Kentucky Department of Public Health has partnered with the CDC under the State Physical Activity & Nutrition (SPAN) grant to offer GoNAPSACC programming FREE to all Kentucky child care providers! GoNAPSACC trainings teach standards for Health and Nutrition based on CACFP guidelines, which are considered “best practices”, and surpass KY licensing regulations. All modules within the program are already approved in ECE-TRIS.

The attached flyer (GoNAPSACC Training Flyer) has detailed information on how to get started.

Please use this resource to learn more about how to find approved trainings: https://ece.trc.eku.edu/ece/resources/files/247

***For CACFP related training content, you can use keywords like CACFP, Food Program, etc. (Please note – not all trainings are sponsored/endorsed by the CACFP program.)

These attachments will also be made available on the DCC website .

Again, DCC is very sorry that today’s town hall did not go as planned.  We will communicate any changes to the town hall format prior to the February town hall scheduled for February 14, 2023.

Thank you for all you do to support Kentucky’s children,

Andrea T. Day

Director

Division of Child Care
