Please consider submitting testimony for An Act Concerning Funding for Student Meals H.B. 5510. The bill calls for school breakfast for all and reimburses CEP schools for unpaid breakfasts. SM4A Coalition would like see the continuation of the current practice of offering no-cost meals to students eligible for reduced-price meals. We are asking for VOLUME of written testimony. Let Hartford know that Greenwich supports food justice and equity!
