[quote=Anonymous]Good intentions. I'm glad they at least tried to address the issue of hunger when school is out. It was an emergency response to an emergency situation. Like warming stations during hypothermia alerts. If the school locations complement other service locations, e.g. close to shelters or low-cost housing, then it makes sense to use their kitchen capacity in emergencies. Clustering support services in a one stop shop can encourage people that it's worth the effort and risks to get there. Maybe DCPs could offer food and volunteer tutoring or homework help or educational activity during emergencies more than one school day? I'm not sure how this would work. But if the building is open from 10am-2pm, why not provide some support in addition to food?[/quote]
