ATTN: It's SNAP Week of Action 📣

States are facing major federal changes to how SNAP benefits are funded.
Without action, Illinois could have to pay up to $550M per year to keep SNAP intact —or risk losing the program entirely.

That puts food assistance for 1.5M Illinoisans at risk.
A 2-year delay of this funding change would give more states time to prepare and protect SNAP.

Tell Congress: Delay the Deadline, Defend SNAP. Take action today: https://chicagosfoodbank.quorum.us/campaign/150271/

Happy National Senior Citizens Day! Today we're celebrating the older adults across suburban Cook County who make our communities richer, and the local meal programs that help them stay healthy, connected, and independent at home.
AgeOptions is proud to fund and coordinate home-delivered and community meal programs throughout suburban Cook County. These daily visits offer more than food. They offer a safety check and a friendly face, which matter just as much as the meal itself.

Thank you to (Illinois Department on Aging) for their continued support of senior nutrition programs statewide.

Want to learn more or connect an older adult in your life to meal programs near them? Call (708) 383-0258 or visit ageoptions.org.
