Hunger-Free Early Care: Fund Food with Care in 2019

Published on Jan 2, 2019 in State Legislation, Young Children

Thank you to all those who were part of the campaign to #FundFoodWithCare last year! Your support helped generate momentum to increase funding for serving healthy meals to low-income children in child care. In 2019, we plan to build off the energy you helped create by renewing the push for funding alongside state policies to ensure that more low-income children in early care and education programs have access to meals. link

We are looking forward to 2019! With a new Governor, a surplus state budget, and many new state legislators, we see great opportunity to improve access to meals for our youngest learners.

Stay tuned for opportunities to support the campaign by signing up for CFPA’s action alerts. link
