The Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act is a U.S. law enacted in 2010 aimed at improving the nutritional quality of school meals. It provides funding for school meal programs and sets higher standards for the food served in schools, ensuring that children receive healthier options. The act also emphasizes the importance of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy products. Additionally, the act supports efforts to reduce childhood hunger by expanding access to free and reduced-price meals for low-income students. It encourages schools to implement nutrition education programs, helping children make healthier food choices and promoting overall well-being.
