2025 Summer Feeding Program
Autauga County Schools is again participating in a summer feeding program as a part of the USDA’s Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). This federally funded, state-administered program provides free meals to children 18 or younger. Participants do not have to reside in the district or be enrolled in the Autauga County Schools’ system, but everyone is required to pre-register to participate.
The SFSP program allows for the distribution of more commonly eaten items, but they are distributed in bulk, unlike the bagged items from last year. All participants are encouraged to designate a spot in their vehicle before arriving at a location and bring a cooler or plastic tub to transport the items home.
New this year! Only one registration per family is required for each feeding date. Once you complete the family registration form (listing all children in one registration), a QR code for each registered child will be sent in one email to the email address provided. Each QR code is required to pick up meals, so please save it somewhere that’s easily accessible. It’s recommended that you take a photo or screenshot of the code for quick access when you’re picking up food.
The new software allows for expanded registration options, so once the number of registered participants meets the limit, all future registrations will be waitlisted. All waitlisted registrations may visit either location during the last 15-20 minutes of the distribution window to be served as remaining inventory allows.
Food will be distributed according to the schedule below until all meals have been given out for that date. The free meals are ten days of breakfast and lunch options, including fresh fruit, vegetables, and milk.
