Meals for Kids

Free Summer Meals are available for kids and teens at parks, community centers, schools and faith-based organizations in your community. A few important things to know about Free Summer Meals this year:

  • The Free Summer Meals program is for kids and teens ages 18 and under—but some sites may offer additional resources for older family members.
  • No fee, sign-up, or proof of identity or legal status is required to receive summer meals.
  • Federal program rules have changed. This year, kids and teens need to be present to receive a meal and meals need to be eaten on-site. Parents and guardians are no longer able to pick up meals on behalf of their children.
