Dear John, This year, as COVID-19 continued to wage its war on our health and economy, our SNAP Hotline Team answered thousands of questions regarding Pandemic EBT, changes to the SNAP program, unemployment and more. All of this, in addition to our core work of helping people navigate the SNAP application process and providing case management when needed. The questions and challenges we heard from our callers were shared with our Advocacy and Education team members. This shaped our creation of educational materials, informed our advocacy/policy efforts and created a feedback loop to share client experiences with local and state offices. We also continued to support our food pantry and soup kitchen Victory in Partnership (VIP) partners as they struggled to deliver food safely to growing numbers of individuals and families in their neighborhoods. |

Thank you for your support! Our work at the Coalition has never been harder nor more important. With your support, our small but mighty Coalition team will continue to: - Convene food pantries and soup kitchens as we work to connect them to additional food, funding and training to support their essential efforts in their communities.
- Connect individuals and families with food resources in their neighborhood and help them navigate the SNAP application process.
- Provide educational resources and advocate for policies and processes that increase access to healthy nutritious food.
With the growing hunger crisis, your dollars enable us to continue our work…ensuring that all people have the food they need to live healthy lives. |
