WEBINAR: SNAP’s Far Reaching Benefits for Children

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) supports over 34 million Americans, nearly half of them children, by helping families afford nutritious food — a foundation for healthy development, early learning, and school success. Recent policy changes in the budget reconciliation package will cut SNAP by nearly $300 billion over the next decade, potentially impacting millions of families, including 11.7 million Latino children, and nearly 3 million young adults. Hosted by the Campaign for Grade Level Reading, this webinar will outline the legislation’s implications and steps state leaders can take. The rebroadcast will feature national and state leaders discussing SNAP’s return on investment, its role in health, education, and economic systems, and strategies to safeguard access for children and families.
