Child Nutrition Story Map

The Colorado Blueprint to End Hunger. with support from the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment and the Colorado Department of Education, updated its child nutrition story map in Spring 2024.

The online resource, initiated by the Blueprint and network partners, was made publicly available to help maximize federal child nutrition programs across Colorado. It maps out the current state of the Child & Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) and Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) – looking at participation rates and sites – to better understand and identify gaps in access as well as areas of opportunity for expanded access. 

Organizations can use the interactive map to boost awareness about the programs; identify potential partnerships, new site locations, and sponsors; tell stories about their community’s needs; and promote continued program flexibility.
