Delivering for Rural Seniors Act of 2024

This bill amends the Agriculture and Consumer Protection Act of 1973 to create a pilot program for home delivery of commodities under the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP), which serves low-income elderly persons. Sec. 2, Commodity Supplemental Food Program Home Delivery Pilot Program: The Secretary of Agriculture is directed to award competitive grants to State agencies to fund projects that facilitate home delivery of CSFP commodities to participants. Grant amounts are capped at the lesser of $4,000,000 or $60 multiplied by the State's CSFP caseload. State agencies must distribute grant funds to local or subdistributing agencies for costs like transportation, staffing, and outreach, prioritizing entities serving participants in rural areas. Grantees must submit reports to the Secretary within 180 days after each fiscal year, summarizing activities, assessing effectiveness (including average cost per delivery and third-party services), and sharing best practices. The bill authorizes $10,000,000 per year for fiscal years 2025 through 2027, with funds remaining available until spent.
