QCC WEBINAR: April 29, 2021: Navigating the Road Ahead: School Reopening, Policy, and Summer Meals

As schools reopen throughout the state, districts are continuing to find creative and innovative ways to provide meals to children. With summer approaching, many are wondering what the next steps will be in serving meals along with what policy changes may be coming that affect service.

In this fourth webinar, No Kid Hungry California, in partnership with four Southern California County Public Health Collaboratives, will present new updates in school nutrition and ways districts are serving meals in completely new school hybrid and distance learning environments. You will hear from Nutrition Directors and leaders from Los Angeles, Riverside, Orange and San Bernardino Counties. Community partners and child nutrition providers will learn about meals in the classroom, out of school time meals, staffing solutions, CalFresh outreach and more.

The Powerpoint is now available!
