Lobby Day
The 2025 National Anti-Hunger Policy Conference Lobby Day will be May 6, 2025. Please begin to start scheduling your meetings in February 2025. If you need support setting up your meetings, contact FRAC’s Legislative Team: Ellen Teller and Tim Klipp-Lockhart.
Lobby Day was a huge success at the 2024 National Anti-Hunger Policy Conference! Hundreds of anti-hunger advocates traveled to Capitol Hill to meet with their Members of Congress and staff to discuss key anti-hunger priorities.
SNAP Matters Rally
On Tuesday, May 6, at 8:30 a.m., join FRAC for a SNAP Matters rally at the Upper Senate Park with several Members of Congress and advocates to highlight the critical role of SNAP and fight back against harmful proposals to cut the program, which serves as our nation’s first line of defense against hunger. During the Monday networking lunch, materials will be available to create posters and signs, so start thinking about how you want to design your sign. Participating in the rally is a great way to get energized for your Hill visits that day.
Leave Behinds
Leave behinds, or one-pagers outlining our legislative asks, ensure that elected officials and their staff remember the important anti-hunger policies discussed during your meeting. See below to find the Leave Behinds provided for advocates at the 2024 National Anti-Hunger Policy Conference, along with additional resources shared during the conference. The 2025 Leave Behinds will be available to print in April 2025, and available at the conference.
