National School Lunch Program

After COVID-19 hit, the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) became free for all students, regardless of familial income. This was made possible through waivers, which were renewed several times since 2020. On June 30, 2022, the waiver for universal free school lunch and breakfast through the NSLP ended, which means that for academic year 2022-2023, families will once again need to pay for meals. In coordination with the Child Nutrition Program through the Wyoming Department of Education, CNP is trying to spread the word about the change and encourage all families to apply for free and reduced-cost meals. We invite you to join us in this effort and have put together a media kit of information that can be shared on social media, printed, and given to families. Find the media kit below.
