Join us for this important webinar on Tuesday, April 21st at 8pmET/5pmPT! Learn how you can apply to the new coronavirus support programs! RSVP

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!

***RSVP NOW to our webinar 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.
