	"description": "On July 4, 2025, the federal government eliminated funding for the Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention Grant Program better known as SNAP-Ed. But here in Michigan, the story isn’t over. The law that allows this vital program to exist is still on the books. That means we have the opportunity and responsibility to act. SNAP-Ed has helped Michigan families for over 30 years by teaching practical, life-changing skills: how to cook healthy meals on a budget, how to grocery shop wisely, and how to improve long-term health with better food choices. It has supported children, seniors, working parents, and people in every county of our state. Now, that support is being dismantled. Without state investment, we will lose the educators, classes, and trusted programs that have made a difference in so many lives. That’s why we need you to write a letter to your state legislators. Lawmakers need to hear from the people who know what’s at stake—people who have seen SNAP-Ed work and understand why it matters. Here’s what you can do: Write a short letter to your state senator and representative. Share your story or the impact SNAP-Ed has had on your community. Ask them to include SNAP-Ed funding in Michigan’s budget to preserve this essential program for families across the state.",
