SNAP and Medicaid advocacy doesn't require authorization, making it a natural first step. No matter your state's policy status, one thing is true everywhere: strong partnerships between legal and frontline workers are what turn a good idea into a working program. Build community partnerships with legal and frontline workers now, and lay the groundwork for a program that's ready to scale.
