The passage of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act in 2010
represents a significant step forward in our nation’s effort to provide all children with healthy food in schools. Over the past year, schools across the country have been working hard to implement strong national nutrition standards for school lunches, and
in the coming years schools will also begin implementing updates to breakfasts as well to snack foods and beverages. While these national updates are an important step, schools need support from state and local advocates, policy makers, health officials,
and others to ensure that all school nutrition environments are healthy for students.
