Clovis Unified participates in Direct Certification. If your household currently receives benefits from one of the following programs: CalFresh (Food Stamps or Snap), California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKs or TANF) or Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR), you will receive a notification and will not impact your no cost meal status. You will be notified of your children’s eligibility for no-cost meal benefits through Direct Certification as required by the California Department of Education.
If you receive a notice from CUSD Campus Catering informing you that children in your household have been directly certified, you may use this notification letter for other qualifying benefits by presenting the information to that specific qualifying program.
