Скачать или смотреть Michigan is the first state to provide meals to families affected by COVID-19 school closures

Michigan is the first state to receive federal approval for a program that will provide food to children affected by school closings due to COVID-19.

The Pandemic Electronic Benefit Transfer Program (P-EBT) provides temporary funding to address emergency food needs and avert financial hardship for families affected by the pandemic.

Benefits will go to Michigan families with students ages 5-18 who qualify for free or reduced-price school meals. The program is estimated to reach almost 900 thousand students. Including families that are currently receiving Food Assistance Program benefits and those not receiving benefits.

The additional benefits will fortify and supplement the important efforts that local school districts will continue to implement by providing meals to children at over 2,000 stationary locations and almost 700 mobile sites throughout the state.
