Good nutrition is important to the health of infants, children, and adults. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, Child and Adult Care Food Program is funded by the United States Department of Agriculture to provide reimbursement to care providers for nutritious meals served to eligible, non-residential children in child care centers, family day care homes, homeless shelters, after school at-risk programs, Head Start, and outside-school-hours programs, as well as meals for older adults in adult day care centers.
