The Cost of Cuts: Understanding the Broad Impact of SNAP Reductions on Health, Economy, and Community Resilience

Join FRAC for a timely and urgent webinar exploring the devastating consequences of proposed cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and how they would affect children, families, local economies, and healthcare systems nationwide. With the House narrowly voting to advance a Senate-approved budget resolution, Congress is now poised to negotiate a sweeping reconciliation bill that would cut $230 billion from the House Agriculture Committee. This cut would dramatically increase hunger and food insecurity, placing additional strain on states, retailers, schools, and healthcare providers—especially in already underserved communities. This conversation brings together experts from healthcare, government, and business to examine the real-world consequences of these decisions and to underscore why SNAP is not only an anti-hunger program—but a cornerstone of health equity, economic stability, and community resilience.
