Worcester Food Policy Council

Join Food Research & Action Center for this important and inspiring webinar next Wednesday at 3pm Eastern.

At the same time that the federal government rolls out devastating cuts to SNAP, states are stepping up as powerful engines for change. Across the country, state leaders are advancing bold policies that protect and expand children’s access to the nutritious meals they need to learn, grow, and thrive. From strengthening School Breakfast and Lunch Programs to reimagining Summer Nutrition access, strategic state action can help counter the harmful impacts of the budget reconciliation law (H.R. 1) and ensure no child is left behind. Join the Food Research & Action Center (FRAC) and a dynamic panel of state anti-hunger advocates for an invigorating conversation about what’s possible when states lead. You’ll hear real-world examples of successful legislation, insights into the evolving policy landscape, and a forward-looking discussion on the future of child nutrition programs nationwide.
