FNS

              ASER·L
The Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture is the
Federal Agency responsible for administering all food assistance programs. Established
August 8, 1%9, the FNS mission is to provide needy persons with access to a more nutritious
diet, to improve the eating habits of the nation's children and strengthen the agricultural
markets for products produced by American farmers. To accomplish this mission, the
agency operates the Food Stamp Program; Child Nutrition Programs which include the
National School Lunch, School Breakfast, Child Care Food Program and Summer Food
Service Program; the Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants and Children; and
various Food Distribution Programs.
The FNS Midwest Regional Office administers these food assistance programs through the
appropriate state agencies - the education, welfare, and health agencies of each state
government. A list of program administrators for each Midwest state begins on page 14.
Located in Chicago, the Midwest Regional Office has responsibility for the food assistance
programs in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin. Agency objectives
are: (1) target benefits to those most in need; (2) improve program administration; (3)
improve state and local program operations; (4) improve program integrity; and (5) improve
the operating effectiveness of FNS. This booklet provides a brief summary of the programs
administered by FNS. Further information can be obtained by contacting:

Food
Stamp
Program
USDA, Food and Nutrition Service
Food Assistance Programs
USDA Consumer Advisor Ann Chadwick (center) shopped with food stamp users prior to
Oeveland's "Make Your Food Dollars Count" Workshop. The "Make Your Food Dollars Count"
initiative has helped households not only purchase an adequate diet but a healthier diet than the
average American.
The Food Stamp Program helps
low-income households purchase
more food for a more nutritious diet.
Participating families get coupons
free of charge, which they exchange
for eligible foods at authorized stores.
Today's Food Stamp Program stems
from the assistance programs of the
Great Depression when farmers were
burdened with foods they could not
sell, while thousands stood in
breadlines, waiting for something to
eat. As an enhancement to the Food
Stamp Plan of the late 1930's, a
permanent Food Stamp Program was
established in 1964 for States wishing
to take part. In 1974 Congress
required all states of offer food
stamps
Under agreement with FNS, state
public assistance agencies administer
the program through their local
offices, which certify eligible
households and issue benefits to
them. FNS develops program
policies and procedures, and pays for
100 percent of food stamp benefits
and at least 50 percent of state
1
agencies' administrative costs.
Program operations are monitored
through a Federal and State
performance reporting system that
includes periodic management
evaluations and continuous quality
control reviews.
To qualify for food stamps,
households must have net incomes,
after deductions, that fall at or below
the Office of Management and
Budget non-farm poverty guidelines.
Household assets must fall below
certain limits and household
members must meet work registration
requirements. Only U.S. citizens and
certain categories of aliens may
qualify.
The Midwest Region ranks first in
the nation with over $200 million in
food stamps issued monthly. Two
midwest states, Illinois and OQio,
have ranked in the top five states
nationwide for issuance and program
participation during the past few
years. The average benefit per
person in the region was $48.49 in
1987 ...

Child Nutrition Programs
Five separate child nutrition programs are administered by FNS: The National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast
Program, Child Care Food Program, Summer Food Service Program for Children, and Special Milk Program for Children.
All are dedicated to the health and well-being of the nation's children. In most instances State educational agencies
administer the programs. The Federal government provides cash and food assistance to the states for those schools and
child care institutions which meet the requirements of the individual programs.
National
School Lunch
Program
Since 1946, the National School
Lunch Program has helped provide
nutritious lunches to the nation's
school children. Through
participating schools and residential
child care institutions eligible
students receive low-cost meals daily.
To participate, eligible schools and
institutions must:
• Operate the lunch program for
all on a nonprofit basis.
• Serve lunches that meet
established nutrition standards.
USDA, Food and Nutrition Service
• Provide free and reduced-price
lunches to students unable to
pay the full cost based on
income eligibility criteria.
Students of families meeting the the
Secretary of Agriculture's Income
Eligibility Guidelines receive lunches
either free or at a reduced price.
Schools and institutions receive a
basic amount of reimbursement for
the number of lunches served and
additional reimbursement at special
rates for each free and reduced-price
lunch served to eligible students. In
addition to cash reimbursement,
USDA donates commodities for
lunches served under the program.
Of the average 3.7 million lunches
served daily in the Midwest Region,
approximately 35.9 percent are
served free and 5.2 percent are
served at a reduced price. The
Midwest Region has the second
highest participation in the School
Lunch Program compared to the six
other regions. Nearly $545 million
was spent last year for school lunches
in the Midwest Region.

School
Breakfast
Program
..
Established in 1966, the School
Breakfast Program offers children a
nutritious breakfast prepared at
school. The program is especially
important in improving students'
diets since many children come to
school without eating breakfast.
Studies have shown a direct
correlation between good nutrition
and performance in school. Like the
School Lunch Program, the breakfast
program is available to eligible
schools and residential child care
institutions. The same criteria for
establishing the school lunch program
applies for the breakfast program.
An average of 265,000 breakfasts
were served daily at a cost of over
$38 million during fiScal year 1987 in
the Midwest Region. Of the total
number served, approximately 89.6
percent were served free, 2.4 percent
were served at a reduced price, and
8.0 percent were paid in full by
students.
Special Milk
Program
The Special Milk Program for
Children makes it possible for all
children attending a participating
school or institution to purchase milk
at a reduced price or receive it free,
if they are eligible. Reimbursement
is provided for each half-pint of milk
served under the program. Schools
and institutions that participate in
USDA, Food and Nutrition Service
Food Assistance Programs
other FederaVState child nutrition
programs may not participate in the
Special Milk Program for Children.
However, split-session kindergarten
classes in schools which participate in
other Child Nutrition Programs may
participate in the Special Milk
Program if the kindergarten children
do not have access to the meal
program. More than 72 million
half-pints of milk were served to
school children in the Midwest at a
cost of more than $6.3 million in 1987.
Child Care
Food Program
Child Care facilities and institutions
are able to serve nutritious meals and
snacks to pre-school and some
school-age children through the Child
Care Food Program. The program
operates in nonresidential day-care
centers, outside-school-hours care
centers, family day-care homes and

in institutions providing day-care for
handicapped children. Participating
facilities and institutions get cash
reimbursement, USDA donated
foods, and technical assistance from
FNS and state agencies. In child care
centers, the amount of cash
reimbursement varies according to
the family size and income. The
amount of cash reimbursement is
based on a food service payment rate
in day care homes. In the Midwest,
more than $% million was spent
during 1987 for more than 132
million meals to children in child
care facilities.
Summer Food
Service
Program
The Summer Food Service Program
for Children helps communities serve
meals to needy children when school
is not in session. The program is
sponsored by public or private
nonprofit school food authorities or
local, municipal, county or state
governments. Public or private
nonprofit residential camps also may
be sponsors.
The program operates in residential
camps and in areas where at least 50
percent of the children served by the
site meet the income criteria for free
and reduced-price school meals.
USDA reimburses sponsors for
operating costs of food services up to
a specified maximum rate for each
meal served. In addition, sponsors
receive some reimbursement for
planning, administrative and
supervision expenses. In the Midwest,
more than 10 million summer meals
were served at a cost of $16 million
in 1987

Supplemental Food Programs
Supplemental
Food Program
for Women,

(WIC)
The WIC Program provides
nutritious food supplements and
nutrition education to pregnant,
breastfeeding, and postpartum
women, as well as to infants and
children up to their ftfth birthday.
WIC is operated by local health
clinics, and other authorized health
facilities. WIC beneftts are currently
provided by approximately 8.000
clinics throughout the country.
To qualify, mothers and children
must be individually certifted to be at
"nutritional risk" because of medical
or nutritional need and inadequate
income. Each participating mother
or child receives individually
prescribed packages of foods high in
protein, iron, calcium, vitamin A and
vitamin c.
Depending on the age and nutritional
needs of the woman, infant, or child,
the package includes such foods as

clinics give participants vouchers.
During each month in fiscal year
1987 nearly 123,000 women, 192,000
infants, and 338,000 children
participated in the WIC program in
the Midwest Region. The total food
cost for the region's program was
approximately $224 million and the
administrative costs totaled over $58
million. The average food cost per
person for the WIC program in the
Midwest Region for fiscal year 1987
was $28.59.

Commodity
Supplemental
Food Program
The Commodity Supplemental Food
Program (CSFP) distributes USDA­donated
foods to low-income women
and children certified by participating
local agencies. Those eligible include
infants, children up to age 6, and
pregnant, breastfeeding or
postpartum women vulnerable to
malnutrition who are not already
receiving WIC benefits. With Food
and Nutrition Service approval,
States may expand their CSFP to
include elderly persons as well.
To participate in the CSFP, women
and children must qualify for benefits
under an existing Federal, State, or
local food, health or welfare program
for low-income people. Some state
agencies also require that
participants be at nutritional risk as
determined by a doctor or staff
person at the local agency.
Participating women and children are
given prescribed food items, which
they pick up at a distribution facility.
They also receive instruction on how
to prepare the foods and practical
lessons on nutrition. The CSFP is
currently operated at 29 sites in 13
states and the District of Columbia.
Recent legislation has authorized six
additional CSFP State agencies to
begin operations, including the
Minnesota Department of Health.
Other CSFP programs in the

Food Distribution Programs
Through the Food Distribution Program, USDA purchases surplus foods from U.S. markets and distributes it to State
agencies for use by eligible local agencies.
The food is distributed to schools and institutions participating in the child nutrition programs, to nutrition programs for
the elderly, to needy families on Indian reservations, and to hospitals and prisons. The food is also given to victims of
natural disasters. Currently schools get approximately 70 percent of the foods donated by USDA.
Charitable
Institution
Program
The Midwest Region leads the nation
in the number of charitable
institutions participating in the Food
Distribution Program. Over $18
million worth of commodities were
served to the needy at charitable
institutions in the Midwest Region in
fiscal year 1987.
USDA, Food and Nutrition Service
Temporary

TEF AP gives needy Americans
USDA-donated foods for household

December 1981 as a means to
distribute the growing government
inventories of dairy products
acquired under the dairy price
support program. It has been
reauthorized through September 1988.
7
The food distributed is free, but
recipients must meet certain
eligibility criteria established
separately by each of the States.
Since the inception of the program
more than 4.8 billion pounds of food
commodities have been provided
through State and local agencies at a
cost of over $5 billion. Nationally
USDA distributed more than $845
million worth of surplus food through
TEFAP in fiscal year 1987.
The Midwest Region has the largest
TEF AP in the nation. More than
$177 million worth of commodities
were distributed in 1987 in the
Midwest Region. Over 230
distribution network agencies or food
banks distributed TEF AP
commodities through about 7,500
distribution sites.

Food
Distribution on
Indian
Reservations
The Food Stamp Act of 1977 gives
Indian households located on or near
a Federally-recognized reservation
the option of participating in either
the Food Distribution Program or the
Food Stamp Program. The Food
Distribution Program is administered
on reservations by the state's
distributing agency or by the Indian
Tribal Organization (ITO). In
instances where both the Food Stamp
and Food Distribution Programs
operate on the same reservation,
households cannot participate in both
programs at the same time.
Like the Food Stamp Program, the
Food Distribution Program for
Indian Reservations has means-tested
eligibility requirements. Eligible
households receive a monthly packet
of food from the four basic food
groups. The amount of food is based
on the household's size. Cheese,
butter, dry and canned milk, flour,
macaroni, canned vegetables and
meats, peanut butter and dry beans
are some of the foods available in the
program. Members of tribes
participating in the program are also
taught nutrition, food storage
techniques and sanitary ways to
prepare food.
The Midwest Region is the second
USDA, Food and Nutrition Service
Food Assistance Programs
largest region in the nation in terms
of the number of Indian Tribal
Organizations participating in the
Food Distribution Program on Indian
Reservations. There are 21 ITO's
within the participating states of
Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Approximately 16,000 needy persons
will be served each month by this
program during 1988 in the Midwest
Region.
Nutrition
Programs for
the Elderly
The Food Distribution Program also
serves elderly Americans through the
National Nutrition Services for the
Elderly Program of the U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS). The Older
Americans Act of 1965, as amended,
provides for social services and
nutritious meals for elderly people.
HHS gives grants to state agencies
which designate area agencies on
aging to plan and coordinate the
nutrition program through local
providers.
The state agencies on aging may
request USDA donated foods, cash
in lieu of foods, or a combination of
both to use in providing meals to the
elderly at various sites. The amount
of food or cash that USDA gives
each state is based on the number of
meals served in the program and the
level of assistance per meal
authorized by legislation. People over
60 years of age and their spouses,
regardless of age, may participate in
the program.
The Midwest Regional Office is

DISASTER
FOOD
ASSISTANCE
Whenever disaster strikes and a
request for food assistance is
received and approved, the Food and
Nutrition Service and its cooperating
agencies are on the scene.
At the outset of an emergency,
disaster relief organizations -- such as
the Red Cross or Salvation Army -­initially
set up shelter locations.
Depending on the extent of the
disaster, the shelters serve as feeding
or housing sites for victims. The
relief organization, using its own food
supplies, sets up kitchens or conducts
mass feeding out of canteens. The
organization may then approach the
state food distribution agency and
request USDA donated foods. The
types of food dispensed depend upon
the site cooking facilities and the
needs of the relief organization.
The USDA foods are generally
diverted from stocks used to feed
children in the National School
Lunch Program. Sometimes,
however, the food comes from
supplies earmarked for other food
assistance programs.
USDA, Food and Nutrition Service
Food Assistance Programs
Emergency food stamps may also be
issued in extreme disaster situations
such as ftre, hurricane, tornado,
flood, storm or other severe
catastrophe. Such emergency
assistance is approved only if
commercial food outlets are still
available for food stamp users and if
the normal, ongoing Food Stamp
Program cannot handle the influx of
applications for assistance. Simplifted
certiftcation procedures are used
when emergency food stamps are
authorized.
Whether food assistance in disasters
is provided in the form of food
stamps or USDA-donated foods,
Food and Nutrition Service personnel
go wherever they are needed to help
state and local agencies with relief
activities.
Innovative food distribution programs like Chicago's SHARE FOODS help families put
nutritious meals on their tables. Participants in SHARE can purchase 50 pounds of food
for $14 in cash or food stamps.

Education and
Training
Nutrition Education Training (NET) efforts are designed to provide nutrition
education information for children, teachers and food service personnel. The
Regional NET coordinator advises the state agencies regarding federally
mandated meal patterns required to operate child nutrition programs. The
regional NET coordinator also provides information and advice about the
"Make Your Food Dollars Count" project, which encourages low-income
consumers to shop wisely for food in terms of nutrition and value.
Under the Nutrition Education and Training Program, funds are granted to the
States for dissemination of nutrition information. The program goals are:
• To encourage good eating habits and teach the relationship between food
and health;
• To train food service personnel in nutrition and food service management
and to encourage the use of the cafeteria as an environment for learning
about food and nutrition;
• To instruct educators in nutrition education and in the use of the cafeteria
as a learning laboratory; and
• To develop appropriate educational materials and curriculum.
