A Message to CAMI on Food Insecurity

Add your name below to send CAMI Chairman Stan Soloway a letter in support of CAMI’s efforts to remove the barriers that prohibit state and county SNAP programs from using food banks and other private entities from assisting in certifying needy families for SNAP benefits.

  • To: Stan Soloway, Chairman
    The Center for Accountability Modernization and Innovation (CAMI)

    Dear Mr. Soloway,

    We, the undersigned, applaud your support for greater flexibility for assisting needy families apply for SNAP benefits. SNAP benefits are the key to addressing food insecurity during the pandemic and at all times.

    Currently only a few food banks in four states are permitted by the federal government, under demonstration authority, to assist our clients with the SNAP application and interview.

    However, our role is very limited and falls short of certifying households for SNAP assistance.

    We support CAMI’s efforts to remove the barriers that prohibit state and county SNAP programs from using food banks and other private entities from assisting in certifying needy families for SNAP benefits.

    Thank you,
