In the Houston area, a change in eligibility requirements is affecting school lunch programs. HISD has announced that it will no longer provide automatic free lunches at certain schools. This decision impacts 33 campuses within the district.
The reason for the change is due to fewer students receiving SNAP benefits. For more information on this development, details are available from HISD, as reported by ABC13 Houston.
