Summer Food Service Program
The State of Kansas Child and Wellness program offers the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). SFSP was established in 1968 to ensure that children in low-income areas continue to receive nutritious meals when schools are closed for vacation. Meals are provided at no charge to all children at approved sites serving areas with significant concentrations of low-income children. Children between the ages of one and 18 may receive meals through the SFSP. In addition, the SFSP is also available to those over 18 who are determined by a state educational agency to have a mental or physical disability and who participate in a school program for individuals with a disability.
