## Resource

A year after SNAP reforms were enacted, over 776,000 fewer children are receiving food assistance—nearly half of all beneficiaries lost in age-tracked states—despite lawmakers’ promises to protect kids. Increased paperwork and state administrative burdens are likely driving families out of the system, straining food banks and risking long-term health and academic consequences for children nationwide.
