Visit http://www.fas.usda.gov/Admin/civilrights/conflictres.asp for more information. http://www.fas.usda.gov/Admin/civilrights/conflictres.asp 55

57. Providing Menu Item Substitutions USDA regulations only require substitutions or modifications in CACFP meals for children whose disabilities restrict their diets based on a licensed physician’s assessment Example: food allergies causing life-threatening anaphylactic reactions Disabilities must be documented by a physician’s statement Physician statement must: state the name of the child’s disability, identify how it limits one of the major life activities, specify foods the child cannot have and the foods to be substituted Generally, children with food allergies or intolerances do not have a disability.

61. Limited English Proficiency (LEP) A shortage of resources does not eliminate the translation requirement Suggestions:  Share resources to save money  Use interpreter from another area  Train bilingual staff to be interpreters  Contact grassroots organizations to discuss translation or assistance from within the community  Language line phone services may be available for a subscription fee through your local telephone service provider 61

67. Ask yourself each time you interact with participants… How would I want to be addressed? Am I treating this person in the same manner I treat others?
