Give Hope to People with Mental Illness Losing SNAP

/

As the final stretch of the year quickly approaches, we urgently need your financial support to help us do our part to strengthen the safety net that is in jeopardy for those we serve. Due to a very difficult political climate and inhumane budget cuts, many vulnerable individuals are now facing food insecurity. Beginning November 2025, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) will be eliminated, which makes it more challenging for those we serve to remain sheltered.
