On Tuesday, Gov. Charlie Baker signed a piece of legislation called 'Breakfast After The Bell,' which will help serve breakfast to more low-income students across Massachusetts' K-12 public schools.

Catherine D'Amato, president and CEO of the Greater Boston Food Bank, told Boston Public Radio on Thursday that children will now be served breakfast in the morning, after the instructional day begins, "guaranteeing children the opportunity to have a breakfast."
