To ensure that no Hoosier student spends their summer break hungry, the United States Department of Agriculture and Indiana Department of Education partner with area schools and organizations to provide meals through the Summer Food Service Program.

This program was created to help bridge the gap for students who rely on the free or reduced breakfast and lunch as their primary source of sustenance during the school year. 

Several local sites will kick off their programs during the first week of June. The communities of North Judson, Hamlet, Knox, Culver and Monterey will be providing meals through this program this summer.

For years, the program has provided children and teens ages 18 and under with access to free, nutritious meals and snacks during the summer months.

At some of the locations, adults may also get meals for a nominal price. Costs vary depending on the site so call in advance if you have any questions.
