Community Stories
SNAP Stories: Liz
When Liz Budd, Grants Manager at the Food Bank, graduated from college in 2008, she was met with a financial crisis in the United States that dampened her hopes of finding a well-paying job that would allow her to pay her bills and save for the future. She turned to SNAP, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, formerly known as food stamps. In part one of the Food Bank’s SNAP Stories, Liz shares her own experiences and talks about the stigma around food insecurity and SNAP benefits.
