We’re updating the CACFP enrollment, income and infant forms generated when you create a pre-filled Participant Registration Form in My Food Program for completion with pen and paper. This change does not affect electronic forms.
Why are we updating the forms?
We’re switching to official state templates where available to reduce the need for separate state agency approval of alternate forms. We’re also aligning the formatting of paper and electronic forms for sponsors who use both methods to collect information from parents or guardians.
What do you need to do?
- Review the new forms to confirm they meet your state agency’s recordkeeping requirements. Links to download both the existing and new versions are available in the email that was sent.
- Report any required changes. If a new form does not meet your state agency’s requirements, please email support@myfoodprogram.com with the updated state agency template or documentation of the applicable requirements. To keep forms consistent and easier to maintain, customization will be limited to changes needed to meet state agency recordkeeping requirements.
- Choose your transition date. You may continue using the existing forms until October 1, 2027, to allow time to update your management plan and prepare for the transition. Complete the verification survey below to let us know whether you would like to switch to the new forms now or on October 1, 2027.
Thank you for helping us prepare for this transition!
