Colorado announces the school meal eligibility policy for School Year 2022-23

The free and reduced-price school meals public release was published by CDE’s School Nutrition Unit on behalf of all sponsors that will operate the National School Lunch Program and/or the Special Milk Program during the 2022-23 school year.

Sponsors will use the School Year 2022-23 income eligibility guidelines for determining eligibility for free or reduced-price school meals and to determine eligibility for the Pandemic Electronic Benefit Transfer program. In addition, households that apply through Monday, Aug. 15, may also be eligible for summer 2022 P-EBT benefits.

To support P-EBT outreach to families, sponsors can use outreach materials highlighting the importance of providing household income information this school year. Outreach materials, including school meal applications, instructions and an informational letter to households are available for school district use on the school meal eligibility webpage.

For more information about P-EBT, visit the Colorado Department of Human Services website.
