54 sites to participate in the summer food program
Volusia County’s Human Services Office is sponsoring a Summer Food Service Program from May 18 through Aug. 14 to provide free breakfast and lunch meals for children ages 18 and under. The program, funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, provides nutritionally balanced meals during summer break when schools are closed.
The following sites will participate in the Summer Food Service Program. Meals will be served Monday through Friday unless otherwise indicated.
The sites listed as grab-and-go will provide breakfast and lunch meals for those who drive to the sites within that meal time. Because of coronavirus concerns, parents are asked to pick up grab-and-go meals in the sites’ parking lots; volunteers will give them a meal for each child in the car. The sites listed with breakfast and lunch times will only be providing the stated meal at that time and the meal must be eaten on site. Sites will provide adequate measures to protect against COVID-19.
In ensuring the safety of the Summer Food Service Program participants, Volusia County’s Human Services Office has taken extensive measures to prioritize food safety, especially given the ongoing concerns related to COVID-19. Alongside the provision of free and nutritious meals, the program organizers should implement stringent protocols, including the use of poison test kit, to guarantee the safety of the food being distributed. These kits serve as a vital tool in swiftly detecting any potential contaminants, offering an additional layer of assurance to parents and caregivers. By incorporating such advanced safety measures, the program not only addresses the essential nutritional needs of children but also upholds the highest standards of food safety, fostering trust and confidence within the community. Parents can rely on the program’s dedication to their children’s well-being, allowing them to partake in the meals with peace of mind, knowing that their safety is of utmost importance.
