Back to School Fairs 

are annual public events held in several communities within the Agency's service area. Family focused exhibitors provide fun activities and information for school-aged children and their families. Starter sets of grade-appropriate school supplies are given to families that meet income-eligibility requirements and pre-apply for the supplies. 

This year's Back-to-School Fair is scheduled for 9 a.m. - noon, Saturday, August 7, 2010 at the Kansas Expocentre.  

The Back-to-School Fair provides free backpacks and grade appropriate basic school supplies for children aged kindergarten through grade 12. Also, exhibitors representing community-based health and social services agencies will be present.  

Eligibility for free school supplies is set at or below 200% of program income guidelines .  Proof of household income and the social security numbers of all household members are required.
