SEC. 43__. REPORT ON FOOD DISTRIBUTION PROGRAMS REACHING
UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS.

The Secretary shall conduct a study on the challenges that
the food distribution program on Indian reservations
established under section 4(b) of the Food and Nutrition Act
of 2008 (7 U.S.C. 2013(b)) and other food distribution
programs administered by the Secretary face in reaching
underserved populations, with an emphasis on the homebound
and the elderly, to better capture data on the population of
people unable to physically travel to a distribution location
for food.
