Each year, Hunger Task Force creates and prepares the Wisconsin School Breakfast Report, which analyzes access to and participation in school breakfast throughout the state. The purpose of the School Breakfast report is to help connect districts to resources that help their students, and to empower districts to share solutions directly with each other.
