After School Program

Children should have nutritious food to fuel their evenings. Kids Cafe, funded by the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP), provides meals and snacks to our network of after-school enrichment sites. Participation encourages academic success, health and wellness, and physical activity. More than one million meals were provided by Kids Cafe last fiscal year.
