Language access looks different in every community.

In Philadelphia, services are shaped by the languages residents actually speak. Investing in language access helps ensure people can safely access services and stay informed.

Everyone should be able to access services without confusion or barriers.

Language access is one way cities and counties are working to ensure residents can get the help they need. Learn more at the link in our bio!

On September 1, 2025 the federal government implemented new rules about who can receive SNAP (also known as food stamps) and for how long. The PA State government estimated that of the 77,000 Philadelphia SNAP participants subject to the new time limits, 45,000 could lose their benefits. That includes people who are still eligible for SNAP because they are exempt from or following the new work requirements, but who could lose benefits due to errors or paperwork barriers.

If the new rules apply to you, you may already be at risk of losing your SNAP benefits or have been affected by the changes. The blog post linked in our bio explains the most recent SNAP updates and what steps you should take to protect your benefits moving forward.

Opportunity starts with access.
