CalSPARK Information and Input Session
Content Type: Upcoming Events
Intended Audience: All CACFP Operators
Date: 11/19/2024
Dear Program Operators,
The California Department of Social Services (CDSS) is pursuing a new integrated software solution, California Supporting Providers and Reaching Kids (CalSPARK), to support the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) as well as childcare subsidy programs. The aim of the new system is to enhance the operator experience with application submission, annual program update submission, program data reporting, program monitoring, and claims processing.
CDSS will host a webinar to provide an update about the project and to seek further feedback from users of the current Child Nutrition Information & Payment System (CNIPS). CDSS created a draft of required functionality of the future system based on needs and challenges identified in previous stakeholder sessions. CDSS will discuss examples of how these capabilities will enhance the user experience in the future system. The goal of the webinar is to share information about those requirements and system capabilities and provide an opportunity for additional feedback on what stakeholders and partners would like to see in the future CalSPARK system.
CDSS will release a survey following the webinar to all members of this mailing list to provide an opportunity for written feedback.
