People facing food insecurity cannot reach the help they need — there are not enough DTA caseworkers to handle the call volume. Project Bread is advocating for investment in the DTA, as it is critical to connecting families facing food insecurity with SNAP and handling increasing caseloads.

No Farm Bill is better than a bad Farm Bill. But last week, the US House of Representatives passed a bad Farm Bill that does nothing to help MA residents access healthy food. Worse, the bill fails to reverse the harmful SNAP cuts passed by Congress last summer.

We are grateful that all nine members of the Massachusetts Congressional delegation stood up for our friends, family, and neighbors by voting no. Join us in urging our US Senators to oppose any Farm Bill without improvements to SNAP and other federal nutrition programs. Take action: https://projectbread.quorum.us/campaign/160551/

We’re not done yet. Hunger has reached crisis levels, with 40% of households in this state facing food insecurity. The need is great, and so is our ability to meet it when we join together. Keep giving, keep fundraising, and keep moving the needle on hunger.
