SNAP-Ed Faces Elimination—
Your Voice Can Save It
Take Action Now - Contact Your Legislators!
Right now, Congress is advancing budget legislation that would eliminate SNAP-Ed, a bipartisan, proven, and trusted program that helps families with low incomes make healthier food choices, stretch their grocery dollars, and support local farmers and food retailers. If enacted, this decision would strip communities of a vital resource that is working in schools, grocery stores, and community centers across the country. Eliminating SNAP-Ed would be a costly mistake—one that harms families, weakens communities, and ignores what works.
ASNNA has gathered materials that members and partners can use to both advocate and educate decision makers about the importance and impact of the SNAP-Ed program. Below you’ll find simple, ready-to-use tools to help individuals and organizations speak out and urge lawmakers to protect this vital program.
