TDA INCOME ELIGILITY GUIDELINES
Eligibility Guidelines
Eligibility may be based on total income and size (i.e., number of household members) of a participant’s household. Children from households whose incomes are at or below the levels shown in the appropriate table are eligible for free or reduced-price meals. If any member of the household receives Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) or Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) benefits, children are eligible for free meals.
Note: Be sure you use the correct income eligibility guidelines based on the time period.
Effective July 1, 2022 – June 30, 2023
