Lunches for Kids Program Set for this Summer
Montana Office of Public Instruction
Superintendent Susie Hedalen is pleased to announce the launch of Montana’s Summer Food Service Program (SFSP), ensuring children and teens across the state have access to healthy, nutritious meals throughout the summer. Sponsored by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the program provides free meals to all individuals 18 years old and younger, helping maintain wellness and promoting smart food choices during the break from school.
“Our communities play a vital role in supporting Montana’s students year-round,” said Superintendent Hedalen. “Through collaboration among schools, nonprofits, and local organizations, we can continue prioritizing the health and well-being of our children even when school is out. The Summer Food Service Program is an invaluable resource for students and parents. I look forward to seeing its positive impact throughout our state.”
Families are encouraged to take advantage of this program, which strengthens community ties and ensures that Montana’s youth have reliable access to healthy meals. Townsend's Summer lunch program takes place at Heritage Park.
