[Michlib-l] Libraries & Summer Food - No Kid Hungry webinar this week

[Lancaster, Cathy (MDE)]

Does your library serve summer meals/snacks, or are you interested in being a meal site or supporting other meal sites in your area?



Read on for some basics about the USDA Summer Food Service Program and how libraries can participate, and an important update on regulations that impact how summer meals are distributed. Briefly, the waivers that granted the USDA flexibility to expand the program and ease requirements on meal distribution during the pandemic are set to expire on June 30. If you want to learn more, No Kid Hungry is offering a free webinar this week:
