No Kid Hungry collaborated with the School Nutrition Foundation to bring you Preparing for Summer EBT: Tools and Strategies for School Nutrition Leaders, an informative webinar designed to help school nutrition professionals understand and promote Summer EBT in their communities. Inspired by insights from recent Summer EBT focus groups, this webinar highlighted what families need to know—and how schools can help connect them to benefits.

This webinar focused on designing summer non-congregate meal programs that center the needs and desires of program participants! We summarized findings from interviews and surveys with program participants, as well as insights from our collaboration with Second Harvest of the Big Bend in Florida where we co-designed program improvements with community members. Additionally, design strategist Lucy Flores shared practical tips and tools summer meal providers can use in their own communities to obtain participant feedback and incorporate it into their summer meal programs.

Child nutrition programs often face challenges in engaging students. In this webinar, hear from inspiring student leaders who have worked with their schools to create successful programs where student voices are not only heard but valued. Learn how they’ve shaped initiatives that meet their needs and promote healthier, more inclusive meal options and more.
