Iowa families who qualify for the Healthy Kids Iowa Pilot Program get expanded access to additional food through June, July, and August, such as fruits, vegetables, dairy items, grains, and proteins.
How it Works
Families will complete the TEFAP application at each site and self-attest to eligibility (see below) to be approved for the program. Each child will receive up to $40 of food per month in June, July, and August.
Healthy Kids lowa food is only available one time per month, per eligible child for the months of June, July, and August.
You may only visit one site per month for Healthy Kids lowa foods. Each site will have a monthly limit of children that can be served.
