CDE is partnering with Colorado Blueprint to End Hunger and Hunger Free Colorado to increase access to the Summer Meals Program and retain sponsors and sites that were able to operate in response to the pandemic. In October 2021, more than 11 million free meals were served to kids and teens, which is a 60% increase from October 2020. Sponsors, sites, and state partners are needed to ensure youth continue to receive healthy meals during the summer when school is out of session. To help ensure summer meals are available in your community, become a program sponsor, site or state partner for the Summer Meals Program.To learn more, visit the Summer Food Service webpage.
