The Pandemic has shown a new light on what child hunger looks like in our country. No one has answered the call at this time more than schools by providing the much needed nutrition children need. It’s no wonder parents consider schools to be one of their most trusted sources in a time of need. But there is still much work to do and CalFresh Outreach can help lift children out of hunger while creating funding opportunities in your school district.
In this webinar, No Kid Hungry California and local Child Nutrition Directors in partnership with San Bernardino County Departments of Public Health and Transitional Assistance will show you how CalFresh outreach can make a great impact on your schools and families. School Nutrition Directors and Administrators will learn how to use this outreach to positively impact their budgets. They will also learn how CalFresh can make a difference in not only the lives of their students, but their bottom line as well. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how CalFresh outreach can be a win-win for your school district.
The powerpoint presentation and recording is now available!
