Eliminating school lunch fees increased participation

 ...by a lot.

Incredibly important report released last week by the Food Research and Action Center looking at participation in school breakfast and lunch programs during 2021-22, when universal coverage of lunch was still national.

As K-12 Dive (rightly) highlights, participation in school lunch programs went up 51% during that school year! 

Just feed kids, folks. It works.
