SUMMARY:SNAP Strategy Funder Working Group: Strategic Communications Operations
DESCRIPTION:Sustainable Agriculture and Food Systems Funders and Grantmakers In Health are forming a funder Working Group for a coordinated\, strategic response to the SNAP cuts in H.R. 1. The Working Group comes as an actionable response to insights shared by field leaders in a SNAP-focused webinar earlier in October. \nRecognizing the far-reaching implications of SNAP for food security\, health\, and economic equity\, this Working Group will serve as an information hub and a strategic coordination space\, designed to help funders act quickly\, effectively\, and in alignment with one another. We will organize three meetings to start and then assess next steps. The first two Working Group calls highlighted advocacy opportunities and training and technical assistance opportunities. \nOur Working Group Call focused on strategic communications opportunities. Elizabeth Wenk\, Principal and Managing Director\, and Nick Seaver\, Senior Vice President and Co-Director of Training Programs at Burness\, shared new insights from message testing about SNAP that highlights messaging that moves audiences\, insights on which arguments resonate and counter opponents\, and how different groups respond to these messages. The State Innovation Exchange (SiX) Food\, Agriculture\, and Rural Economies team shared what they are hearing from state legislators advocating for SNAP\, and how funders can support state policymakers’ efforts to protect the program. \nThis Working Group is open to all funders currently responding to or actively considering a response to SNAP cuts. Funders do not need to be members of SAFSF or GIH – if you are wrestling with the impact of SNAP cuts for your communities\, this space is for you. \nSpeakers Included \n\n\nAlabama State Senator Merika Coleman\nEmma Newton\, Director of Organizing\, Food\, Agriculture\, and Rural Economies\, State Innovation Exchange\nElizabeth Wenk\, Principal and Managing Director\, U.S.\, Burness\nNick Seaver\, Senior Vice President and Co-Director of Training Programs\, Burness
