Abstract: This revision addresses a modest reduction in reporting burden for for-profit institutions. The proposed rule, "Increasing Flexibility for Verification in the Child and Adult Care Food Program," would reduce the number of times eligibility must be verified, from monthly to annually, for for-profit centers serving a high percentage of children or adult participants from low-income households.
