Free Summer Meals for Children and Teens From Centro Hispano

Centro Hispano Daniel Torres takes part in the Summer Food Service Program, a federally funded program that provides free, nutritious meals to children and teens during the summer months when school is not in session. The idea is that children keep getting healthy meals in the months when school meals are not available.

The program is for children and teens in eligible areas. The page does not name the towns or neighborhoods that count as eligible areas.

Meals are available at no cost to all children and teens at approved meal sites. The page does not say whether a child has to sign up, bring anything or show proof of anything, and it does not say how many meals a day are served, at what times, or how long each site runs.

Site locations and operating dates are posted before the start of the summer program, so the list for a given summer is not available ahead of that. To ask where and when meals will be served, you can call the organization's general number, 610-685-1265. Centro Hispano's Welcome Center is at 201 Penn St. Suite 101, Reading, PA 19601, open Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM.

If you believe you were treated unfairly in this program, you can file a USDA program discrimination complaint using form AD-3027. To request a copy of the complaint form, call (866) 632-9992. Completed forms or letters go to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Office of the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights, 1400 Independence Avenue, SW, Mail Stop 9410, Washington, D.C. 20250-9410, by fax at (202) 690-7442, or by email to program.intake@usda.gov.
