"Meet Up & Eat Up," the SFSP is going to look a little different this summer, but the need is even greater than ever before. Join this webinar to learn how libraries can play a role in feeding the youth in your community.
The Michigan Department of Education aims to feed the whole child the whole year. The Meet Up and Eat Up Summer Food Service Program Staff will share how to expand the SFSP to your area. The webinar will cover SFSP basics, requirements for sponsors who operate the SFSP, sites who provide healthy meals to children, and site activity options for Summer 2020.

Upcoming MeL Webinars
A series of webinars has been organized to support public libraries in two areas: 1.) identifying content that can support summer reading and learning, and in some cases that content specifically supports the Imagine Your Story theme this year, and 2.) ideas for marketing MeL content via online platforms.
A couple of notes:

  1.  All sessions will be recorded and links will be provided for those who cannot attend virtually.
  2.  Registration is being handled directly by our vendors so it will not follow the typical LM registration process.
