Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

The CARE for Kids Act amends the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act to expand eligibility for free and reduced-price school meals. The bill enhances direct certification by adding children in kinship care, foster care, adoption assistance, kinship guardianship assistance, and children living with grandparents or older caregivers in low-income housing as automatically eligible. It also allows meal eligibility determinations to transfer between school districts when a child moves and extends eligibility for one additional year when a child begins living with a relative caregiver, and clarifies Medicaid-based eligibility for school meals.
