The district has served lunches at two Chino parks to families since 2018, but lack of resources prevented them from continuing the program this summer, leaving some families stretched thin.

A Chino lunch program that many families have relied on for the last several years is no longer available, stretching some families thin with nearly two months of summer left to go. The program has served lunches at two Chino parks to families since 2018, providing about 350 lunches to families through a partnership with the Chino Valley School District.

Crystal Luce, another parent who relied on the lunches, say that it goes beyond the money. 'It's very important, because not only do they have the free lunch. They kids get to play with other kids, and there's no stigma attached, because other kids are here having the free lunch as well,' Luce said.
