The Western Region Anti-Hunger Consortium
has made child nutrition and food stamps its top priorities,
with the goals of influencing the national debate in favor of
needed improvements to the programs, and educating concerned
community members in its ten-state area about the importance
of federal and state program changes.
WRAHC was founded in 1992 to strengthen anti-hunger advocacy
in the western states, to foster collaborative work on regional
issues, and to provide a united voice on federal issues affecting
the region. Current membership includes organizations from ten
western states: Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho,
Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Washington.
Over the years, WRAHC has implemented successful joint outreach
campaigns for the Summer Food Service and Food Stamp Programs,
produced joint policy papers, coordinated responses to federal
legislation and regulations, and initiated regional media campaigns.
The most significant challenge lies ahead as Congress has the
opportunity to improve and overhaul the Food Stamp Program.
