Join the Food Research & Action Center (FRAC) and the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) for a powerful discussion on what the proposed $300 billion in SNAP cuts—now advancing to the Senate—will mean for farm communities. These cuts don’t just threaten families facing hunger; they also put small farmers and local food economies at serious risk. Programs like Double Up Food Bucks and the Healthy Incentives Program help farmers earn income while providing families with low incomes access to fresh, healthy food.

In this webinar, a panel of experts will break down the real-world impacts of these proposed cuts—on small farms, rural economies, and community health—and highlight what’s at stake for the critical programs that connect farmers and families across the country.

Presenters:

• Gina Plata-Nino, JD, Deputy Director, SNAP, FRAC
• Lanae Hood, PhD, Policy Associate, CSPI
• Pauline Rescorl, Seven Morning Farm, Arkansas
• Brad St. Pierre, Executive Director, Tanana Valley Farmers Market, Alaska
• Ben Feldman, Policy Director, Farmers Market Coalition
