School meals
The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) ensures daily access to nutritious meals for all students. We work with all school districts to create programs aimed at increasing school meal participation. We also advocate for expansion of the program by promoting Community Eligibility Provision (CEP). CEP allows high- poverty schools to offer both breakfast and lunch at no cost to all students, thus eliminating the traditional school meal application process for schools. In addition to the work, we do with NSLP we also help ensure that students have access to meals after the bell. We work with community organizations to help establish after school and summer meal sites. Over the years we have also, facilitated Farm to School Projects that help bring agriculture to the classroom.
