Dear Friend,
In the past month, the U.S. Congress has passed major pieces of
legislation to help address the impact of the coronavirus pandemic that
you — or those you know — may be qualified to receive. Included in these
policies are massive expansions and updates to unemployment insurance,
paid sick days and paid family leave, and nutrition assistance (including
SNAP, WIC, and free school meals).
A lot of people have important questions about who can apply for these
programs, how to gain access, and where to go for more information. We've
got you covered!
[ [link removed] ]***RSVP NOW to our webinar [ [link removed] ]on Tuesday, April 21^st at 8pmET/5pmPT to
learn about how you can apply to the new coronavirus support programs!
Join MomsRising, along with experts from CLASP, National Employment Law
Project (NELP), Food Research and Action Council (FRAC), and National
Immigration Law Center, for an online webinar to learn the nuts and bolts
about what you need to know to apply for new assistance programs during
the COVID-19 pandemic. This is also an opportunity for you to ask any
important questions you may have…because these new programs can be
complicated and it can be hard to know how to get covered or where to
start in the application processes.
