Your school may now be eligible for federal funding to reduce hunger through the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) school meal funding option that enables schools to provide free meals to all students.

Due to COVID-19, schools may use post-pandemic data (from April, May, and June 2020) to set their poverty rate. Therefore, schools that elect CEP before August 2020 can lock-in their current elevated poverty rate (ISP) for four years.

The school meal programs are among the best ways to feed kids and ensure their families have sufficient resources to afford food. As families continue to feel the economic impacts of the coronavirus crisis, we urge you to take full advantage of all federal resources, especially CEP, to ensure our students have access to the food they need. For more information, please contact Tam Lynne Kelley with No Kid Hungry Maryland ([email protected] or call 410-753-4304). To determine if your school is eligible to participate in CEP, please contact your school district’s Food and Nutrition Department.
