On May 17, 2022, at 2 p.m., the Nutrition Services Division (NSD) is hosting the seventh listening session for the newly established California Universal Meals Program (Universal Meals) beginning in School Year 2022­–23.

Universal Meals is designed to build on the foundations of the federal National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. There are three key pillars to help ensure greater access to school meals:

  1. California’s State Meal Mandate is expanded to include both a nutritiously adequate breakfast and lunch for all children each school day.
  2. California’s Universal Meals Program requires high poverty schools to participate in a federal provision.
  3. The California State Legislature allocates funds to provide additional state meal reimbursement to cover the cost of the Universal Meals Program.

Through the California Universal Meals Program public school districts, county offices of education, and charter schools will provide breakfast and lunch at no charge to students requesting a meal, regardless of their free or reduced-price meal eligibility during each school day.

The May listening session will focus on clarifying guidance and addressing common questions program operators have regarding the implementation of Universal Meals. Topics that will be addressed include:

  • Universal Meals Program requirements
  • Nonprogram food sales
  • Competitive foods
  • Paid lunch equity
  • USDA Foods

In addition to guidance surrounding these topics, NSD staff will be joined by representatives from the University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources Nutrition Policy Institute who will share early results of surveys they have conducted with families and members of the school nutrition community.

If you have any questions or feedback prior to the Universal Meals Listening Session, please email UniversalMealsSY22@cde.ca.gov. Your feedback is helpful to inform the NSD of content for future listening sessions. A list of Frequently Asked Questions is available on the California Department of Education (CDE) California Universal Meals web page.

Target Audience

The target audience includes all state and local school nutrition professionals, superintendents, school business officials, and community partners involved in school meal service.
