FOOD INSECURITY AND HUNGER IN OUR MILITARY.

FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS, OUR GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS TEAM HAS BEEN WORKING WITH MEMBERS OF CONGRESS AND POLICYMAKERS TO ADVANCE REASONABLE AND WELL-DEVISED SOLUTIONS TO COMBAT FOOD INSECURITY IN OUR MILITARY. FOOD INSECURITY HARMS MILITARY AND FAMILY COHESION, RETENTION AND RECRIUTMENT. THE FOLLOWING WHITE PAGE IS A BLUEPRINT OF OUR TEAM’S ONGOING WORK AND RESOLVE TO END THIS NATIONAL DISGRACE. IN THE MEANTIME, AS WE LET THE WHEELS OF cONGRESSTURN, OUR ORGANIZATION HAS STEPPED UP AND CREATED THE ‘FOOD FOR TROOPS’ PROGRAM. THROUGH VARIOUS MEANS, WE COLLECT AND DISTRIBUTE FOOD AND OTHER ESSENTIALS TO MILITARY FAMILIES LIVING ON MILITARY BASES AND IN OFF-BASE HOUSING.

 We advocate for impactful and constructive legislation and policies that directly enhance the quality of life for our military and veteran communities. USASOA strives to collaborate and engage with diverse, nonpartisan coalitions, including government agencies and various veteran service organizations, to improve the lives of over 20 million American veterans across this great nation.

USASOA boasts a commendable record of success in Congress, championing the rights and dignity of our veteran community. With your support, enthusiasm, and financial contributions, we will persist in our efforts to safeguard the well-being of all veterans and their families.
