Summary
The Keep Kids Fed Act of 2022 was enacted to help schools and daycare providers manage rising food costs and supply chain disruptions following the COVID-19 pandemic. The law temporarily increased federal reimbursement rates for school breakfasts, lunches, and daycare meals to ensure programs could remain financially viable while providing nutritious food to children. Additionally, it extended the Department of Agriculture’s authority to waive certain administrative requirements, allowing schools more flexibility in how they served meals through the 2022-2023 school year.
