Description

Discover how your organization can advance access to healthy meals for communities when school is out of session by participating in USDA summer meal programs. Through SUN Meals (Summer Food Service Programs), not only can children ages 0-18 enjoy free meals and snacks at schools, parks, and local sites all summer long but there are now opportunities to serve those in rural areas with non-congregate feeding solutions. 

Hear from community members on the ground about their experience and get their advice on how to start or improve your experience as a sponsoring organization or service site. Learn the basics of the program and get resources to transform summer nutrition in your neighborhood and help ensure no child goes hungry when school is out.  

Earn up to 4.5 hours of Continuing Education.
