Bill Summary
Delivering for Rural Seniors Act of 2025
This bill directs the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) to award competitive grants to state agencies under a home delivery pilot program for participants in the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP).
As background, the CSFP works to improve the health of low-income persons at least 60 years of age by supplementing their diets with nutritious Department of Agriculture foods.
Under the pilot program, a state agency must distribute grant funds to an eligible entity (i.e., a local agency or subdistributing agency) to operate projects that facilitate home delivery of commodities to CSFP participants. Grant funds may be used for costs associated with
- transportation and distribution of commodities to CSFP participants,
- staffing required to operate home delivery services, and
- home delivery outreach to CSFP participants or potential participants.
A state agency must prioritize eligible entities that serve CSFP participants who reside in rural areas.
A state agency must also submit an annual report to FNS about the project, including best practices regarding the use of home delivery to improve the effectiveness of the CSFP.
