Supplementary Feeding Programs (SFP)

Supplementary Feeding Programs (SFP) are targeted initiatives designed to provide additional nutrition to vulnerable populations, such as children, pregnant women, or those at risk of malnutrition. These programs offer nutritious food or supplements to help improve health, support growth, and prevent the development of deficiencies. Usually implemented in communities with limited access to balanced diets, SFPs aim to bridge nutritional gaps temporarily while promoting better long-term health and resilience against illness. They are often part of broader efforts to improve public health and reduce malnutrition-related morbidity and mortality.
