Baltimore County Schools launch free 'Grab and Go' meal program

BALTIMORE -- Baltimore County Schools' "Grab and Go" summer meal program starts Wednesday, July 20. Free summer meals are provided to anyone under 18 through the program.

Until now, food had to be consumed on-site, but recently passed legislation enables parents to pick up food and from community sites and take them home. 

Meals are served Monday through Friday, and each day, parents or guardians picking up meals will receive one lunch and the next day's breakfast for each child in their household under the age of 18.  

"This change provides much more flexibility for parents or guardians while at the same time ensuring that their children receive an enjoyable and healthy menu of breakfast and lunch meals," said Jaime Hetzler, director of the BCPS Office of Food and Nutrition Services.
