CACFP

FOOD PROGRAM

The Tremont Monterey Day Care, Inc. is one of the sponsors of the New York State Department Of Health’s Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) for the nutrition of our children.

The Program provides healthy meals and snacks to children receiving day care.

We contract with CACFP to monitor the nutrition of more then 12,000 children in all 5 boroughs of New York City. Providers are reimbursed for serving nutritious meals that meet the strict requirements of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

The Program plays a vital role in improving the quality of day care and making it more affordable for low -income families.

There are many different homes and centers that participates in the CACFP program including Child Care Centers, Family Day Care Homes and After-school Care Programs.

If you’re interested in enrolling your program, please call (347) 590-7455.
