NANASP calls for end to USDA cuts impacting schools and food banks 

Today we call on the U.S. Department of Agriculture to immediately reverse the recently announced cancellation of the Local Food Purchase Assistance Cooperative Program and the Local Food for Schools Cooperative Agreement Program. NANASP believes these cancellations are without merit and will contribute to increased food insecurity rates across the lifespan from school children to older adults who rely on assistance from food banks.

During the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond, NANASP has co-led successful advocacy efforts
to gain more funding for important aging programs, including:

Emergency relief funding of over $1.6 billion for OAA Title IIIC nutrition programs, including congregate and home-delivered meals, and increases of $60 million in regular funding for these programs over the last four fiscal years
Relief funding of $660 million for OAA Title IIIB supportive services
Relief funding of over $60 million for OAA Title VI Native American nutrition and supportive services

In the past year, NANASP has also led a successful advocacy campaign to make new pneumococcal vaccines available to older adults, participated in the White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition and Health, and given grant funding to our members for innovative projects, inflation protection, diversity efforts, and public-private partnerships.
