R510-104-17. Restriction on Use of Funds

(1) Program income generated by OAA Title III Part C-1 and Part C-2 may be used as the additional alternative (to expand the number of meals provided, or to facilitate access to such meals or to provide other supportive services directly related to expanding nutrition services) or the cost sharing alternatives as stated in 45 CFR 92.259(g)(2) (to match federal and/or state funds) or, a combination of the two alternatives.

(2) To defray program costs, a AAA which serves as the nutrition provider may also perform Nutrition Services for other groups and programs outside the parameters of the Nutrition Program for the Elderly under the OAA, providing such services will not interfere with the project or programs for which the contract was originally granted. These extra nutrition activities shall be managed in a manner that does not impede the preparation or delivery of nutrition services to the elderly, and shall charge the full cost of preparation and delivery of the nutrition services as set forth by the provider. When persons 60 years of age and older participate in these "special events," they assume the identity of the activity and are obligated to pay the requested fee for participation. This shall not be confused with the donation policy of the Title III Nutrition Programs. A nutrition provider who contracts with a AAA is obviously free to serve other clients as it wishes.
