NPR Seeks Stories From Those Affected by Food Assistance Program Changes

National Public Radio is reaching out to individuals across the country who have been affected by modifications to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as food stamps.

The news organization is specifically looking for personal experiences from people who have either already lost their benefits or are concerned about potential loss of assistance under the program.

SNAP represents the nation’s most extensive program designed to combat hunger, providing food assistance to roughly one out of every eight Americans who are living at or slightly above poverty thresholds.

Those interested in sharing their experiences with NPR can provide details about how changes to the program have impacted their daily lives and food security.
