Last week, CEO Scott Rumpsa shared an opinion piece in The Holland Sentinel, highlighting the serious risks proposed federal cuts to SNAP and Medicaid pose to our community.

In his piece, Scott shares how Community Action House is already feeling the effects of federal funding changes, explores how our neighbors will be impacted if the proposed cuts move forward, and offers ways for the community to get involved.
