Meet Up and Eat Up™" Site Maps Programs that provide meals for low-income children during the summer are crucial for the hundreds of thousands of Michigan students who rely on the federal school meals program during the school year. Once the final school bell rings, over 700 locations across Michigan help to bridge that gap until the start of school next fall. The Michigan Department of Education has created a Site Locator Map, which allows families to identify the nearest Meet Up and Eat Up™ sites, including information about locations, meal types, times, and driving directions. USDA Summer Food Service Program The USDA's Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) feeds children who may otherwise go hungry when school is out. During the regular school year, some 21.4 million children receive a school lunch at little or no cost to their household. In some cases this is the child's main meal of the day. However, when summer arrives and school is no longer in session, the number of children participating in a federal food assistance program drops dramatically, to approximately 3.8 million, and the USDA is working hard to close that gap. You can help by getting the word out that there are meals available by using these summer meal flyers which provide a toll-free number to help connect parents and children to a site near them that serves summer meals! The flyer is available in English and in Spanish. |
