Does the State of California fund the EFAP Program?
No. This program is funded entirely with Federal funding. No State money is provided to support these services or purchase additional food. • What protections does the Department provide to ensure that authorized EFAP agencies properly handle and distribute USDA and donated food? Reports are submitted and maintained by each authorized EFAP agency that show where and how much food has been distributed. These reports are closely monitored by Department staff. In addition, State staff perform periodic on-site reviews of food distribution agencies to ensure that EFAP rules are followed and that food is received, stored, handled, distributed and accounted for properly. This way the Department ensures that food gets to the persons for whom it is intended.
