Oakland plans to continue its free summer meals program for children and adults with disabilities despite earlier concerns about funding. Backed by local organizations, the program aims to provide meals from May 27 to August 8, with the bulk of sites starting in June. The initiative serves as a vital resource for families who rely on school meals during the academic year and hopes to reach about 950 meals served daily. This longstanding program demonstrates strong community partnerships and commitment to addressing food insecurity in Oakland.
This is what real partnership looks like - public and private organizations coming together to make sure our kids are supported.
Oakland's summer meals program has been around for four decades. Many children whose families are food insecure have access to nutritional meals during the school year.
