Summer Mental Health Resources
While many students and families are excitedly planning for summer break, we know this season can also be a difficult and isolating time for some students. Please reference the attached document for mental health resources to help support students and families during the summer break.
Summer Resources for Students & Families
Summer Nutrition Resources for Families
Just as connection serves as a powerful protective factor for youth mental health, meeting children's basic needs is essential to their well-being. This summer, children can access free, nutritious meals through USDA SUN Meals at upwards of 500 locations across Connecticut. Any child aged 18 and younger can simply show up and enjoy a healthy meal at no cost to them or their household—no application, income verification, or ID required. Families can find nearby meal sites using the USDA Summer Meals Site Finder. Locations and hours may change throughout the summer, so families should check before they go. In addition, most children eligible for Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer (S-EBT) benefits will receive them automatically. Families who have not received benefits but believe they may qualify can apply. Learn more about S-EBT.
