Thank you Governor Ned Lamont for investing in CT's future by funding universal breakfast & the cost of reduced-price meals for the next school year! We're thrilled to see this important move toward #SchoolMealsForAll & making sure every child has the nourishment they need to thrive.
Amazing news: Michigan is now the 7th state to sign #SchoolMealsForAll into law! 🎉
FoodCorps is excited to see another state passing free school meals for all students, and we'll continue pushing for Congress to pass legislation that expands and fund school meals for all.
