The Danbury Public School system is participating in the federally funded Summer Food Service Program. The program provides nutritious meals to all children 18 years and under free of charge who normally receive free or reduced priced meals during the school year.
End Hunger Connecticut Executive Director Lucy Nolan says Connecticut went from 5th to 4th in the nation in terms of kids taking part. Nolan says only 1 in 4 eligible children participated last year. The average family incurs about $300 a month more in food costs when kids are out of school.
