Child Nutrition Programs are initiatives designed to ensure that children receive healthy meals and snacks, particularly in schools and community settings. These programs aim to combat hunger and promote better nutrition among children, helping them grow and learn effectively. They often provide free or reduced-cost meals to eligible families, ensuring that all children have access to nutritious food. Key components of these programs include the National School Lunch Program and the School Breakfast Program, which serve millions of children daily. Additionally, programs like the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) support families in purchasing healthy foods, contributing to overall child well-being.
