I've benefited from a lot of these programs before getting into security. It turns out that trying to support a partner and a kid on $40k/yr, even in the early 2000's, is basically impossible. My parents were divorced, and my dad is a disabled vet.
Food security has always been important, long before organizing with comrades who also occasionally needed support. So if you have money, donate.
Eventually benefits will come back. Hopefully we can bridge the gap... But we won't be able to for everyone. When things come back, don't just feel relieved and move on. The system is collapsing. If it doesn't completely fall apart now, it will eventually. If you aren't affected now, you will be. Organize now around food security.
The disaster is now. The best time to prepare was years ago. The second best time is now.
