Webinar: The Herlinda Project: Tools to Combat Public Charge Misinformation in Immigrant Communities

The current political climate is leaving even more immigrant families with uncertainty about their ability to access benefits like Medicaid, SNAP, and others. That’s why Protecting Immigrant Families (PIF), Immigrant Legal Resource Center (ILRC),  and Share Our Strength/No Kid Hungry are launching The Herlinda Project—a new initiative designed to help immigration attorneys and others understand the basics of safety net programs. Join us Thursday, March 6, 2:00PM EST for The Herlinda Project Webinar: Tools to Combat Public Charge-Related Misinformation in Immigrant Communities. During this webinar, we’ll go over the current state of public charge policy under the second Trump Administration, share how state advocates can also play a crucial role by using tools like KeepYourBenefits.org, explain how you can use these resources to empower immigrant communities with accurate, accessible information.

New Webpage: Public Charge Updates for Families

A new page on our website provides timely public charge information for families, as well as links to PIF resources for communities. It also offers a link to the KeepYourBenefits.org site, which includes a search tool people can use to learn more about how public charge applies to their own immigration status. The new pages have short, easy to remember URLS: in English at PIFcoalition.org/families and in Spanish at PIFcoalition.org/familias, which you can also access via the links below.

Advocacy: Protecting SNAP and Child Nutrition Programs

House and Senate leadership are advancing a budget plan through a fast-track process known as reconciliation. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and child nutrition programs are slated for significant cuts. The Food and Research Action Center has provided a sign-on letter for national, state, or community-based organizations (authorized signers only) to push back against proposals to cut, gut, and/or weaken SNAP and child nutrition programs in budget reconciliation or in the Farm Bill. The letter is available to view and sign via the link below.
