    Allocation of Administrative Funds for State Costs of Implementation of New Meal Patterns

    Letter from USDA to Governors
        Americans support helping families in need put food on the table, especially when times are tough, but they want to know that taxpayer dollars are being spent wisely. That is why, along with ensuring program access, one of my top priorities for SNAP is further strengthening the integrity of the program and rooting out waste, fraud and abuse so that federal dollars are used appropriately.

    Direct Certification and Zero Benefit Households
        Section 9(b)(12)(A)(i) of the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act restricts categorical eligibility for free school meals based on SNAP participation to children who are members of a household receiving assistance under SNAP. Therefore, a child who is a member of a household that is receiving “zero benefits” from SNAP is not categorically eligible for free meals, unless the child is categorically eligible for another reason.
