HOW TO ENROLL
Students in the Central Dauphin School District are eligible for NutriPacks. You must register each school year, even if you registered in the past. If a family has multiple students, each one must be registered.
We have 9 school locations for picking up weekly food packs. Each school has specific pick up options, described within the registration. Each school has specific pick up locations described within the registration, and you choose one location for your pick up. If you have enrolled multiple children and they attend different schools, you can pick up all packs at one location. Once enrolled, you will be sent a welcome letter or email confirming the details: the date when your service begins, the time & location for pick up.
