SUMMER FOOD SERVICE PROGRAM
Arizona Department of Education
During the summer months, kids lose access to school breakfast and lunch, and many children are hungrier in the summer than at any other time of the year.
Food insecurity, or a lack of consistent access to adequate food for an active, healthy life, affects children in many ways. Food-insecure children are more likely to miss school, perform worse academically, experience social, emotional, and mental health challenges, forego healthcare, and develop chronic diseases.
Summer meal programs are most effective when paired with educational and enrichment activities, which provide students a fun, safe place to be with friends and stay active, help curb the learning loss experienced during the summer months, especially among low-income children, and prepare students to return to school ready to learn and thrive.
If you operate an indoor or outdoor site where children gather during the summer, check to see if you are eligible to serve summer meals at tinyurl.com/SFSPeligibility.
Interested and eligible sites can connect with a sponsor to provide meals by sending a message to ContactHNS@azed.gov. Act now and start planning for the summer!
