Urge Congress to Restore Nutrition Education Funding
On July 4th, 2025, President Donald Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act into law, eliminating funding for the Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention Grant Program, also known as SNAP-Ed. However, the underlying statute authorizing this impactful program remains in place. As Congress turns its attention to appropriations, we are urging lawmakers to align funding decisions with the longstanding bipartisan support for nutrition education.

For over 30 years, the Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention Grant Program has quietly and powerfully assisted families in making healthier choices, all while strengthening local economies, supporting American Farmers, and building strong, lasting connections between nutrition, self-sufficiency, and community resilience. Its repeal eliminates a highly effective, evidence-based program that has played a critical role in helping millions of low-income families make informed, healthy food choices. 

This message has been prepared for you to send to your Senators and Representatives. Join us in ensuring that the Congress' final FY 26 funding bill restores funding for the Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention Grant Program. Please share success stories and the program’s impact on you or your community. Your voice can help ensure continued investment in this strategic and effective tool that promotes economic resilience, and safeguards the health of individuals, families, and communities.
