FRAUD OF THE DAY| Watchdog.org Food for Thought By Larry Benson / September 2, 2014 Through the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) provides nutritious food to young children, older adults and chronically impaired disabled persons in institutions such as day care centers and group homes. (This is definitely food for thought – approximately 3.3 million children and 120,000 adults receive meals and snacks each day through this program.) An article published by the Courier-Post describes the current charges against the owner of a Philadelphia day care center chain accused of bilking the CACFP of approximately $1.3 million through bogus claims. (You could definitely buy a lot of snacks with that amount of money.) This post was imported from a legacy archive. Please excuse any formatting inconsistencies. Related
