“Community Care Starts With Us”

These are among the truest words ever spoken. From Momsrising’s blog, here are resources: we should share them far and wide so that people can at least get by. I write letters and make phone calls with Momsrising; this is good and vital information. And, you don’t have to be a mom to use, share, or help anyone with this info! It’s for all. -A

We moms shouldn’t have to hold the nation together on empty.

Yet here we are in the middle of a government shutdown that has thrown families into chaos. SNAP benefits are being cut; air traffic controllers, military school teachers, families in several states are losing child care as Head Start centers start to close; and other federal employees are facing another missed paycheck (while still showing up every day, keeping our country running!). WIC is barely hanging on by thread, and rising costs are pushing families past the brink.

Moms are holding it all together and we see you!!

We see your strength. We see your exhaustion. And we know that love shouldn’t have to come with this kind of struggle.

While the Trump Administration continues to play politics with families’ livelihoods, we want to make sure you have support right now while we keep up the fight.

You are not alone. You are not invisible. And you should never have to carry this weight without care and community surrounding you.

We see you. We’re with you

Community care starts with us! Share this list so more families can find the help they deserve.

We know this shutdown is taking a toll. Your story matters. If you are being impacted by the shutdown, SNAP cuts, or rising costs, please share your story with us! When moms speak out, leaders listen!
