Today's Child Learning Centers & Warwick Child Care provide FREE, nutritious meals and snacks to support physical health and learning development.

Full-day students receive breakfast (high-quality infant formula and baby food for infants), hot or cold lunch and an afternoon snack. Other students are provided meals and snacks depending on their age and the program they attend.

We comply with the food requirements of the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and work in concert with the USDA to ensure the highest standards of nutrition and healthy eating for our children.

CACFP also provides financial support for the meals and snacks of children of eligible families. The USDA prohibits discrimination in all its programs and activities on the basis race, color, national origin, sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation), disability, age, or reprisal or retaliation for prior civil rights activity.
