Participate in the SFSP
Information about the SFSP was sent out in two separate SFSP Bulletins this year. If you did not receive the January 23, 2024, or the March 5, 2024, SFSP Bulletin messages, view them in the Nutrition Program Bulletin Archive. Note that the application period for the SFSP is short, so if you are interested in participating in SFSP for summer 2024, to ensure you do not miss any deadlines.
