CCRWF is working with the California Legislative Women’s Caucus and the Nutrition Services Division of the California Department of Education to increase outreach to families and children eligible for the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). Together we developed materials to help legislators reach out to low-income families to encourage their participation in the Summer Food Service Program.
Everyone agrees this partnership is a “win-win” scenario: Children ages 18 years and younger living in eligible low-income neighborhoods have increased access to nutritious meals, while the state can draw down federal dollars to help California’s troubled economy.
