A NOTE FROM THE SCHOOL NURSE
Did you know that 1 in
5 Vermont children live in families that struggle with hunger? Many
families are unaware that receiving the Earned Income Tax Credit makes them
eligible for food and nutrition benefits as well…
•And
this includes free school meals for their kids!
•Families
who receive the Vermont Earned Income Tax Credit and have dependent children
qualify for 3SquaresVT (formerly food stamps) without having to meet the income
test typically required to establish eligibility; and once receiving
3SquaresVT, the children then qualify for free school meals as well.
For
more information about 3SquaresVT or EITC, or for printed materials, contact
Faye Conte atfconte@hungerfreevt.org or 802-865-0255.
