Urbana School District 116 (USD116) will once again offer free meals to all children 18 years old and younger during the summer months through its annual Summer Meal Program. The initiative, running from June through mid-July 2025, is designed to ensure that local youth have consistent access to nutritious food while school is out of session.

The Summer Meal Program is open to all children who meet the age requirement, regardless of whether they are enrolled in summer school or attend Urbana Schools. Additionally, individuals aged 18 or older with a state-defined mental or physical disability are eligible to receive free meals. There are no income requirements or registration needed to participate.
