This study examined New Mexico home-based child care provider perspectives (n = 75) on barriers to and facilitators of Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) participation. Two thirds of the sample were Spanish speakers. Providers reported that CACFP reimbursement does not cover actual food costs and the time-and-effort costs of obtaining qualifying foods and completing required documentation. They noted that additional reimbursed meals are needed for children in care for extended hours and that linguistically competent CACFP sponsor staff facilitated their participation.

这项研究调查了新墨西哥州家庭式儿童保育提供者对儿童和成人护理食品计划(CACFP)参与的障碍和促进因素的看法(n=75)。样本中有三分之二是西班牙语使用者。提供者报告说,CACFP 的报销不包括实际的食品成本以及获得合格食品和完成所需文件的时间和精力成本。他们指出,需要为照顾时间延长的儿童提供额外的报销餐食,并且有能力提供语言服务的 CACFP 赞助工作人员促进了他们的参与。(2023 年;113(S3):S215-S219。https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2023.307402)。
