Community Events
School Meals Available at Community Locations
On September 1, 2020, the USDA extended the summer grab-and-go school meal program for all children until December 31st, 2020. Children aged 1-18 are eligible to receive meals regardless of school or district of attendance. Children do not have to be present for parents to pick up meals, and walk-up or drive-up options are available. Masks are required. School districts are working hard to implement the new guidelines and meet local needs. At this point, we are aware of meal services in Escondido and Oceanside. Please visit their websites for more information. To find out when your neighborhood school will be ready to participate in this program, please contact them or your local school district.
