For the last four months, our team has been hard at work in Jefferson City working to pass new policies to decrease hunger, homelessness, and poverty across the state! From advancing automated criminal records expungement, to securing the budget for the state to implement the new federal Summer EBT program to provide additional nutrition to school-aged children in the summer months, to defeating harmful new proposed homeless criminalization provisions, we've been racking up wins, even in a difficult year. But, we can't do it alone. Policy change is powered by people. We know that there are many great causes to support on Give STL Day, but we're hopeful you'll consider a gift to Empower! Policy change is the best pathway towards decreasing poverty statewide.
