Hunger-Free Campus Pilot Program

Summary

The bill would have the Florida Commissioner of Agriculture pick the three state universities or Florida College System institutions with the largest share of Pell‑eligible students and require them to form hunger task forces, provide SNAP assistance, operate on‑campus food pantries, and conduct a hunger survey. Those schools would report their actions and results to the Department of Agriculture, which would forward a summary to the governor and legislature, while a state office would study campus food insecurity. The measure failed to advance and died in committee.
