Summary
The purpose of this bill is to establish the Summer Feeding for All initiative that will encourage county school systems to look for innovative ways to provide assistance to students in need to access nutritious foods during summer break and other times when school is not in session. The bill requires each county school board to conduct an assessment of the availability of food to students to determine what food insecurities exist in the student population. The bill directs each county school board to compile and distribute a list of existing food providers in the community that will provide nutritious food to children with food insecurities on nonschool days. The bill directs the Office of Child Nutrition to help facilitate county school boards to coordinate and develop the public policy initiative of Feed to Achieve.Â
