SUMMARY:A Deep Dive into the Community Eligibility Provision (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:The Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) allows high-need schools to offer all students school meals at no charge. CEP reduces barriers to school meal participation\, eases the administrative and operational burdens faced by school nutrition departments\, and is an effective tool in the fight against childhood hunger. In the 2023-2024 school year\, one out of every two schools that operated the National School Lunch Program used CEP to offer free school meals to all students. Join the Food Research & Action Center as we do a deep dive into community eligibility\, exploring CEP’s history\, regulations\, and the benefits free school meals bring to students and schools.\n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Everything You Need to Know about FRAC's SNAP Challenge
DESCRIPTION:Could you get the nutrition you need on only $6 per person per day? FRAC’s SNAP Challenge\, March 18–20\, allows participants to get a glimpse of what life is like for tens of millions of people who struggle to put food on the table. Some in Congress are proposing dangerous cuts to SNAP that would make it even more challenging for households with low incomes to fill their cupboards. Now is a great opportunity to push back and show Congress why SNAP should be protected\, not weakened. Join FRAC on March 10 at 12 PM to hear insights from Sophia Lenarz-Coy\, who recently participated in a SNAP Challenge through The Food Group Minnesota\, and Ashley Depover\, who will talk about her lived experience and what it’s like to try to get by with SNAP benefits. The FRAC team will discuss how to prepare for the Challenge and answer any questions you may have as Challenge Week approaches.\n\n\n\n\nRegister now
