Summer Foods Program

Summer Foods Program Welcome to Simplified Summer Food Program (SSFP) in Idaho.

SSFP is the single largest Federal resource available for local sponsors who want to combine a feeding program with a summer activity program. Children in your community do not need to go hungry this summer. During the school year, nutritious meals are available through the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs. But those programs end when school ends for the summer. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Summer Food Service Program helps fill the hunger gap.

Idaho's Simplified Summer Food Program sponsors increase the number of meals served to children every year! Idaho serves over 1,000,000 meals during the summer in Idaho. Idaho's children, families and communities benefitted from the commitment to feed children nutritious meals. Thanks to our sponsor's dedication, more of Idaho's children had access to meals when school was out for the summer!

Summer is just around the corner. It is time to think about the children in your area having access to meals when school is out. I look forward to hearing from you about starting a Simplified Summer Food Program. I would love to see all Idaho's children have access to nutritious meals during the summer.

Please contact Angela T. Miller with any questions you have about the program in Idaho at atmiller@sde.idaho.gov.
