Nourishing Networks provides a compiled list of Northshore area food assistance and nutrition supports:

This summer, your child may be eligible to receive food assistance through the  Summer P-EBT (Pandemic-Electronic Benefits Transfer) program supported by  USDA. P-EBT provides families with funds to make up for the cost of meals while the Northshore school buildings are closed. This benefit is for Washington children in grades K-12 who receive free or reduced-price school meals. These benefits will be on an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card, which is used like a debit card to buy groceries. Learn more by visiting the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) website.

Families can also sign up for text alerts to receive notifications or chat with DSHS support to ask questions.  Families looking for summer meal sites hosted in other parts of the community can visit the USDA Summer Meals for Kids Site Finder to search for locations.
