Free Meals are Being Served to Children at Hundreds of Locations in Missouri 

The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services Summer Food Service Program is designed to provide breakfast, lunch, suppers and/or snacks to children living in eligible areas during the summer months and during times of public emergencies, when children do not have access to free or reduced-price meals at school.

DHSS has provided an online interactive map help families in Missouri find where their children can receive free meals this summer. The map shows sites where children must sit and eat the meal, as well as certain rural locations that are designated as pick-up sites for families to obtain multi-day meals to take home.

Meals will be served to children ages 18 and under and individuals ages 18 to 21 who have been determined by a state or local educational agency to be mentally or physically disabled and who participate in an established school program for the mentally or physically disabled.

Children do not have to be registered and there is no fee to participate in the program.
