What is this resource?

The 5 listed Detroit-area recreation centers participate in the government-funded Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP), making it possible for children 18 years or younger to access nutritious meals and snacks free of charge. By current standards, these meals follow a standard of vegetables and fruit, whole grains, lean meats or meat alternatives, and low-fat dairy while minimizing added sugar and saturated fat. The meals are congregate meals, so children must eat them at the recreation sites, and there will be no pick-up meals at the centers.

Resource Pricing

None!
