With the policy changes that went
into effect in September 2013 that allow
FDPIR to take a standard deduction from
income for shelter/utilities and the medi-
cal deduction for elderly households, par-
ticipation across the country has increased
by at least 30 percent.
Unfortunately, USDA/FNS did not
expect such an increase when they made
the food purchases for the quarter. That
means a food shortage in every warehouse
across the country. It has been particularly
frustrating to have our program increase
by about 25 percent and not be able to
offer all the products to our clientele.
There was a shortage of ground beef
and frozen chicken from about November
through March. It’s better now, but we still
see a shortage of the most popular juices,
orange and apple.
We continue to work diligently,
checking the catalog daily to add products
to our orders as they become available, but
so have other programs nationally. It’s all
about timing, it seems.
We continue to work on adding fro-
zen pork chops to the food package. The
survey results have been tabulated and the
next step is for FNS to put it out to bid. It
is a long process, but in the end it will be
worth the wait.
There was not one negative comment
to our survey, so we can expect to see the
pork within a year.
I am still trying to get the flour or
whole grain tortilla added to the food
package, but it is a struggle to be heard
at times. I will bring my request to the
national board in June when we attend the
NAFDPIR (National Association of Food
Distribution Programs on Indian Reserva-
tions) conference once again and will try
to gain support from other programs.
