Building a Summer Meals Workgroup<http://org2.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=WZ3b6TgfK6m39nvtlbErVkbVjQTq%2F%2FQU> (Nov 5, 2015)
Establishing a summer meals workgroup or taskforce is an effective strategy for identifying underserved areas and sharing best practices across networks. By convening invested partners early and often, you can share resources and develop an extensive outreach plan that will ensure the success of your program. Join us to learn the most effective ways to form and maintain the momentum of a summer meals workgroup.

Summer Meals at Libraries<http://org2.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=6SpTeJ271TnFBTUOg7B6g0bVjQTq%2F%2FQU> (Dec 3, 2015)
Increasing numbers of libraries are partnering with anti-hunger organizations, school districts, and city agencies to provide summer meals alongside programming. Participating in the Summer Nutrition Programs not only allows libraries to become a key ally in eliminating childhood hunger and promoting healthy foods, but also helps contribute to the library’s success. Learn ways to engage your community’s libraries around promoting and serving meals through the Summer Nutrition Programs.

Afterschool Meals Matter
(Calls are at 1pm eastern.)

Marketing Your Afterschool Meal Program<http://org2.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=sC7U3B3sgaYT%2Fg1N8ZgLI0bVjQTq%2F%2FQU> (Nov 19, 2015)
Developing a cohesive outreach strategy is an effective way to increase the visibility of your program and build participation. Hear about effective methods and resources that state agencies, advocates and program providers use to promote the Afterschool Meal Program in their community.

Providing Quality Programming at your Afterschool Meal Program<http://org2.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=vz8uG3PXUL8u%2FkC9a%2F%2FUeUbVjQTq%2F%2FQU> (Dec 17, 2015)
Serving meals at your afterschool program can significantly boost enrollment by children, but offering engaging and interesting activities can also be just as critical to maintaining participation. Learn about quality educational programming ideas that you can offer and resources that you can access at little to no cost to support your program.

Breakfast Matters
(Webinars/calls are at 3pm eastern.)

Principal Champions for Breakfast After the Bell in Secondary Schools<http://org2.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=DncgaSkQaq1UHilXelrRAkbVjQTq%2F%2FQU> (Nov 12, 2015)
Principals play a pivotal part in the successful rollout of Breakfast After the Bell programs. Join us to hear highlights from the Food Research and Action Center and the National Association of Secondary School Principals’ upcoming joint report which captures the experiences of over 100 secondary school principals who have implemented an alternative breakfast service model. Principals will discuss what it takes to garner support, plan and launch an alternative breakfast service model and how such programs have supported student academic success in their school buildings.

Starting Breakfast in the Classroom Mid-Year<http://org2.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=9uxAl45eV63rNJzU%2BFe1uEbVjQTq%2F%2FQU> (Dec 10, 2015)

Join us to hear from school nutrition directors across the country who successfully rolled out alternative breakfast models during the school year. We will discuss what it takes to transition to a new delivery model mid-year and also share best practices for garnering stakeholder support, communications, and training.
