Oakton Sponsors Child and Adult Care Food Program

The Early Childhood Demonstration Centers at Oakton Community College announce the sponsorship of the Child and Adult Care Food Program. This program is designed primarily to provide nutritious meals to all children in child care centers, Head Start programs, before- and after-school programs, and homeless shelters. Meals are available at no separate charge to children.

In accordance with the Child and Adult Care Food Program, no child will be discriminated against because of race, color, national origin, gender, age, or disability. Any person who believes he or she has been discriminated against in any USDA-related activity should call 1-800-795-3272, or write to: USDA, Director, Office of Civil Rights, 1400 Independence Ave. SW, Washington, D.C.
