MFEE, MPS helping kids access school lunch
For the start of the 2025-2026 school year, MFEE and MPS are working together to connect more students to the Free and Reduced Lunch Program, a national school lunch program administered by the state. As part of this, MFEE is also sharing information about SNAP – a federally-funded program that provides food benefits to low-income families – and connecting families who may be eligible with official SNAP navigators at the YMCA of Montclair.
For questions about applying for the school lunch program contact Reddrick Robinson at
rrobinson@montclair.k12.nj.us.
For information about MFEE’s outreach efforts, contact Dory Hack at dory@mfee.org.ā
