Commodities Program In Iowa Sees Loose Eligibility Rules
The Cedar Rapids district distributes cheese butter and rice under a lax system. DHS uses reduced lunch guidelines for eligibility while local HACAP volunteers organize the distribution in Linn and adjacent counties. Random checks cover about 10 percent, with fraud rates believed under 30 percent. Distribution shifts to quarterly due to USDA cuts, with a November giveaway upcoming.
