Understanding eForms

Table of Contents

In This Article

Your KidKare Food Program package includes a subscription to eForms. eForms is an all-in one enrollment process for the food program that eliminates paper forms. With eForms, you can:

  • Send Invitations: Send forms to guardians via email. Guardians can then fill out and submit the forms from their computer or mobile device. Guardians can only submit completed forms, so you only receive forms that are 100% complete.

  • Track Enrollment Status: Track form completion on the View Status page, resend invitations, and open forms for guardians to complete onsite.

  • Approve & Renew Enrollment: Once forms are submitted, review them directly from your computer or device, approve them, and renew enrollment.

All forms are stored digitally, and you can retrieve them at any time. This saves time and space by eliminating the need to print and re-print forms. To get started, Send Renewal Invitations.
