With students not going back to school until August 31, Volusia County’s Human Services Office is extending its Summer Food Service Program through Aug. 21. Thirty-two sites will continue to provide free breakfast and lunch meals for children ages 18 and under.
The sites listed as grab-and-go will provide breakfast and lunch meals for those who drive to the sites during the specified times.
According to a release put out by the county, parents are asked to pick up grab-and-go meals at each site’s door. Volunteers will give them a meal for each child in the car. The sites listed with breakfast and lunchtimes will only be providing the stated meal at that time and the meal must be eaten on site. Sites will provide adequate measures to protect against COVID-19.
