🌟 We honored Jean McMurray with the Patrick Hughes Award for Social Justice during our 58th Walk for Hunger on May 3! With 30 years of leadership at the Worcester County Food Bank, Jean has been a steadfast advocate in the fight against hunger in Massachusetts. www.massnonprofit.org/news/project...

Nearly 1,000 advocates joined FRAC’s National Anti-Hunger Policy Conference to fight harmful SNAP cuts and advance WIC, Healthy School Meals for All, and Summer EBT. Read Crystal FitzSimons’ reflections: frac.org/blog/lets-be...

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.

The Senate FY27 budget proposal released today includes key investments to support the 40% of Massachusetts households facing food insecurity, such as full funding for the Healthy Incentives Program.

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.
