LANSING – Meet Up and Eat Up Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) sponsors have been working hard serving meals to children in their communities, and the Michigan Department of Education (MDE) encourages all school sponsors with eligible sites to continue providing meals during the summer months.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) approved national program flexibilities in the SFSP to serve all children (18 years and younger and up to age 26 with a disability) in Michigan regardless of site eligibility in a non-congregate setting. Many sponsors have stepped up and used these flexibilities.
