Summer Food Service Program
Children need good food all year long, even when they're not in school. The Summer Food Service Program provides healthy meals at no charge to children age 18 and younger at a place near where you live.
Your children get the food they need to fuel up for summer fun so they can learn, play, and grow when they are not in school.
Your children might get breakfast, lunch, supper, or a snack, depending on what the site serves. Your children can have meals at no charge each day, and you will have more money left to buy food for the whole family.
Program sponsors serve meals with milk, meat, fruits, vegetables, and bread. All meals and snacks meet federal nutrition standards.
