Child Nutrition Outreach Program
The mission of the Child Nutrition Outreach Program (CNOP) is to increase participation in the National School Breakfast Program and the Summer Food Service Program. CNOP is funded by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) and administered by Project Bread. The program focuses primarily on assisting targeted low-income communities with a high percentage of children eligible for free and reduced price school meals, but assistance is available to all school districts in Massachusetts.
Summer Food Service Program
The Summer Food Service Program gives meals to children 18 years old and younger in eligible Massachusetts communities. This program helps children in low-income families to have a healthy summer and start the school year ready to learn.
