SUMMARY:Responding to H.R. 1: Funder Opportunity to Help States Mitigate SNAP Coverage Losses
DESCRIPTION:Co-Hosts: Sustainable Agriculture and Food Systems Funders and Grantmakers In Health.  \n\n\n\nH.R. 1’s unprecedented requirement that states pay for a share of SNAP benefits based on their payment error rates will impose a massive financial burden on state budgets\, forcing them to choose between cutting other programs and services\, reducing SNAP eligibility\, or even stopping participation in SNAP entirely.  \n\n\n\nTo mitigate this threat\, the Aspen Institute’s Financial Security Program and Social Finance have partnered to develop a proposal to help states effectively implement H.R. 1 and reduce some of the coverage losses and fiscal impacts. The concept\, based on a successful model that supported states during Medicaid Unwinding\, is to deploy small teams of digital services and process design experts directly to states or counties (depending on the type of SNAP administration).  \n\n\n\nThis proposal is an outgrowth of many conversations\, including those as part of the SAFSF-GIH SNAP Funder Working Group\, between advocates\, state and county offices\, funders\, and many more. It is one of many essential strategies to ensure that millions of Americans continue to have access to SNAP.  \n\n\n\nPlease join this briefing to learn more about this timely intervention.  \n\n\n\nThis call is open to all funders currently responding to or actively considering a response to SNAP cuts. Funders do not need to be members of any of the co-hosting funder networks – if you are wrestling with the impact of SNAP cuts for your communities\, this space is for you. Please register below.
