Atlanta Families: Access Meal Resources & Support—You Are Not Alone!

Every child deserves the security of knowing where their next meal will come from. To our families, you are not alone. Atlanta Public Schools will continue its efforts to ensure students have every option available to find the resources they need. APS has launched a website with food resources, community distribution calendars, and partner links. Additionally, the district offers support through the APS Student and Family Support Hub, which houses a Goodr grocery store for APS families, hosts a monthly free food distribution, and provides other essential services. Within our schools, our social workers, counselors, and family engagement specialists are also ready to connect with you to provide immediate support. APS will continue to work together with the City of Atlanta, the Atlanta Community Food Bank, Goodr, and other partners to ensure that no child in Atlanta goes hungry. Together, we will meet this moment with compassion and care for APS students and their families!
