Child Nutrition Support: Extending School Meal Flexibilities
This act aims to ensure children continue to receive meals in schools and during summer, despite supply chain issues. It extends the ability for schools to provide meals flexibly, including non-congregate options, and supports schools in managing food shortages.
Key points
Schools can continue to flexibly provide meals to children, such as parent pick-up, making food more accessible.
Waivers for standard school meal requirements due to supply chain disruptions are extended, helping schools maintain nutrition programs.
Support for summer meal programs is prolonged, ensuring children have access to food outside the school year.
