Pop-Up Zoom Meeting: On-Site Claims Verification/Validation Reviews (CDSS Notice)

šŸ—“ļø Thursday at 11:00 AM Pacific | šŸ“ Zoom

ā­Ā Free for CACFP Roundtable MembersĀ 

šŸ·ļøĀ $25.00 Non-membersĀ 



Our communities are facing uncertainty and hardship in a number of ways. This week, California Department of Social Services - CACFP Branch, sent an email to all California CACFP Sponsors and facilities sharing that the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Services (USDA FNS) will conduct on-site reviews in the next 60 calendar days. Along with this notification, there was a request for specific information outlined in this notice. CACFP Roundtable thought you might have questions or concerns, and are therefore providing space to hear directly from CDSS and each other.Ā 

  • Jessie Rosales, CDSS CACFP Branch Chief, will join us for the first 30 minutes to give voice to the email you received and listen to your concerns and questions.Ā 

  • Liza M. Davis, Esq., Advocacy Director, Children in Immigrant Families from the Children's Partnership, will also join us toĀ talk to us about what your rights are when people come to your facilities.Ā 

We may not have all the answers, but we believe it is important to come together to 1) support each other, and 2) gather questions and concerns to lift up to CDSS and other policy makers as appropriate.Ā 


CACFP Roundtable holds these pop-ups in response to what the community might need in the moment. Join us with your questions, ideas, and concerns.Ā Ā  Register here



Become a Mealtime Ally: Understanding & Navigating Feeding Challenges in CACFP Settings


Grab your favorite snack and join us for a dynamic session on Pediatric Feeding Disorder (PFD)ā€”a condition affecting more than 1 in 37 children under age 5, and as common as autism or cerebral palsy. Early interventionists and CACFP professionals are often the first to support families facing mealtime challenges, which can be stressful for children, staff, and caregivers alike. Through a compassionate, relationship-focused lens, feeding therapists Allie Glazer, M.S.CCC-SLP/L, and Angela Hughes, M.S.CCC-SLP/L will reframe "picky eating," highlight the complexity of feeding, and distinguish typical struggles from PFD.


ā€‹Participants will learn about the four domains of PFD, debunk common feeding myths, and discover why mealtimes can be overwhelmingā€”often due to sensory and skill-based factors, not just behavior. The practical "3 Pā€™s Framework"ā€”Proactive Preparation, Practical Presentation, and Partnershipā€”will equip you with actionable, pressure-free strategies to support positive food experiences and healthy caregiver-child relationships. Walk away ready to spot red flags, use screening tools, collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, and empower families and staff to champion lifelong healthy relationships with food.Ā If you can't make it at the designated time, you can access it for a year on-demand afterward.


Simultaneous interpretation will be provided.Ā 


ConviĆ©rtase en un aliado a la hora de comer: comprender y afrontar los retos de la alimentaciĆ³n en los entornos CACFP

Traiga su aperitivo favorito y Ćŗnase a nosotros en una dinĆ”mica sesiĆ³n sobre los trastornos alimentarios pediĆ”tricos (PFD), una afecciĆ³n que afecta a mĆ”s de 1 de cada 37 niƱos menores de 5 aƱos y que es tan comĆŗn como el autismo o la parĆ”lisis cerebral. Los especialistas en intervenciĆ³n temprana y los profesionales del CACFP suelen ser los primeros en apoyar a las familias que se enfrentan a dificultades a la hora de comer, lo que puede resultar estresante tanto para los niƱos como para el personal y los cuidadores. A travĆ©s de una perspectiva compasiva y centrada en las relaciones, las terapeutas alimentarias Allie Glazer, M.S.CCC-SLP/L, y Angela Hughes, M.S.CCC-SLP/L, replantearĆ”n el concepto de Ā«alimentaciĆ³n selectivaĀ», destacarĆ”n la complejidad de la alimentaciĆ³n y distinguirĆ”n las dificultades tĆ­picas de los PFD.


Los participantes aprenderĆ”n sobre los cuatro Ć”mbitos de los trastornos alimentarios funcionales (PFD), desmontarĆ”n mitos comunes sobre la alimentaciĆ³n y descubrirĆ”n por quĆ© las comidas pueden resultar abrumadoras, a menudo debido a factores sensoriales y relacionados con las habilidades, y no solo al comportamiento. El prĆ”ctico Ā«marco de las 3 PĀ» (preparaciĆ³n proactiva, presentaciĆ³n prĆ”ctica y colaboraciĆ³n) le proporcionarĆ” estrategias viables y sin presiĆ³n para fomentar experiencias alimentarias positivas y relaciones saludables entre los cuidadores y los niƱos. Al finalizar, estarĆ” preparado para detectar seƱales de alerta, utilizar herramientas de evaluaciĆ³n, colaborar con equipos multidisciplinarios y empoderar a las familias y al personal para que promuevan relaciones saludables con la alimentaciĆ³n durante toda la vida. Si no puede asistir a la hora designada, podrĆ” acceder al curso bajo demanda durante un aƱo despuĆ©s de su finalizaciĆ³n.
