Miami-Dade Community Action Agency (CAA) will provide meals to children at program sites throughout Miami-Dade County, as part of the 2011 Summer Food Service Program. The Program will operate from June 13, 2011 through August 12, 2011. Nutritionally balanced meals will be provided to all children regardless of race, color, sex, disability, age, or national origin during summer vacation when school breakfasts and lunches are not available. All children 18 years old and younger are eligible for meals at open sites at no cost. It is the policy of Miami-Dade County that all children will be served without discrimination. The program sites are only approved in geographical areas where 50 percent or more of the children qualify for free and reduced price meals during the school year.
Program sites are located throughout Miami-Dade County in recreational centers, summer camps, churches, and community based organizations that provide services to children during the summer recess. A list of the participating distribution sites is available to be downloaded from the Miami-Dade County web portal at www.miamidade.gov/caa
