• receive free and reduced lunch
• receive or are eligible for Medicaid
• meet HHS, state, or federal poverty guidelines
• receive or are eligible to receive TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families)
• visit or are eligible to visit WIC clinics
• receive or are eligible to receive low-income housing
• receive food stamps
