Summer Meal Program Helps
Head Off Hunger
For Iowa Children
Iowa families who rely on schools to help feed their
children during the school year have access this
summer to meals served in schools, community
centers and other sites at no charge through a
federally funded program.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Summer
Food Service Program provides thousands of meals
to Iowa children in low-income areas at no charge to
their families. These meals are intended to replace
school meal programs that are unavailable during
the summer. The federally funded program is
administered by the Iowa Department of Education
and local sponsors.
"The Summer Food Service Program helps children
maintain proper nutrition all summer long so that
they return to school in the fall ready to learn," said
Stephanie Dross, an Iowa Department of Education
consultant.
The program will operate about 500 meal sites
across Iowa from June through August. Each site is
administered by a local sponsor, including schools,
churches, local cities, and other private nonprofit
community organizations. Sponsors may begin
serving meals and snacks as soon as their local school
districts have ended classes for the school year,
meaning that service dates will vary throughout
Iowa.
The sites are open to all children ages 18 and under
at no charge. No identification or sign-in is required.
Many sites offer learning and recreational activities
for children.
To find a summer meal site near you, visit
www.fns.usda.gov/summerfoodrocks or call 211 or 1-
866-3-HUNGRY, or text "FOOD" or "COMIDA" to
877-877. Services are available in English and
Spanish.
