H.R. 1 introduced sweeping changes to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), narrowing eligibility for many humanitarian-based noncitizens and deepening fear among immigrant communities. While some individuals remain eligible, confusion and misinformation continue to limit access for families who need food assistance.
Join the Food Research & Action Center (FRAC), National Immigration Law Center (NILC), Protecting Immigrant Families (PIF), the International Rescue Committee (IRC), and Refugee Council USA (RCUSA) for a vital discussion on what’s changed—and what advocates, service providers, and community leaders can do now.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
The basics of SNAP immigrant eligibility and how H.R. 1 alters access for humanitarian-based – noncitizens.
Who these populations are, and what barriers they face under the new law.
Best practices to engage and support immigrant households that remain eligible but are fearful due to ongoing anti-immigrant rhetoric and policy attacks.
How advocates can push for equitable access, protect data privacy, and counter misinformation.
Together, we’ll examine what’s at stake and how to respond—through outreach, advocacy, and coordinated action.
