Support Anti-Hunger Programs in the 2012 Farm Bill

Your comments are needed! Congress is gearing up for the 2012 Farm Bill. Now is your chance to submit written comments about hunger in your community, and how anti-hunger programs funded through the Farm Bill, like the Food Stamp Program, are vital. It is also an opportunity to weigh in on how these programs should be strengthened, protected, and funded to better meet the needs of hungry New Yorkers.

To submit your comments, go to: http://agriculture.house.gov/inside/feedbackform.html.

The Nutrition Consortium will be actively involved in advocating for the 2012 Farm Bill, and will be keeping our network updated as opportunities arise.

Please contact Dawn Secor or by phone at ext 12 for more information, and how you can get involved.
