What is Arkansas Summer Food Service?
The Arkansas Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) provides nutritious meals and snacks to children during the summer months. This Federally funded food service program helps children who live in eligible areas receive the same high quality meals during the summer as they get during the school year.
Local sponsors oversee the production and distribution of meals to children at sites like schools, churches, parks, and playgrounds.
