Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) classroom training is no longer available for 2012. SFSP training is a required component to qualify for SFSP program participation as a sponsor. If you would still like to participate in SFSP for 2012 and did not complete the required SFSP training you may be able to join the program under an approved, participating sponsor.
