Young Invincibles @YoungInvincible Welcome to today's #millennialmon focused on student hunger & SNAP benefits for college students! https://t.co/r4sF6dr6ab | |
Jana Bergevin @JanaBergevin RT @YoungInvincible: Welcome to today's #millennialmon focused on student hunger & SNAP benefits for college students! https://t.co/r4sF6dr6ab | |
Generation Progress @genprogress Millennial college students are facing "food insecurity"—uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate food, and the inability to access that food without a$$i$tance. This is UNACCEPTABLE. Read @wihopelab’s report: https://t.co/h54Hn8E2OZ #MillennialMon | |

Debra Isaacs Schafer @DebraISchafer @YoungInvincible A1: Moreso than most people know. Even with an increasing # of colleges/universities starting food pantries, many are still not being served or reached. #MillennialMon | |
#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour A1. 1/4 of students in higher ed are suffering from hunger💔 This is the heartbreaking truth according to➡️ https://t.co/UxcDHbLrHM #MillennialMon | |
Kristin McGuire @Im_Just_Krissy A1: Students across our country struggle with food insecurity on a regular basis. The problem is so widespread and longstanding that we have normalized it by cutely calling it #StarvingStudent. #MillennialMon https://t.co/jrwQXtXAoR | |

#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour A2. I think that this sort of thinking is exactly what diminishes the impact of hunger in the lives of students🚫🍲🍕. When we normalize it we inadvertently give our consent. This is not ok! #MillennialMon https://t.co/YhmDHPbcLB | |
Higher Ed, Not Debt @HigherEdNotDebt @YoungInvincible A2. The burdens of today’s cost of college are felt beyond tuition. Weighing nutrition and quantity against costs between food options is a *too-common* part of the college experience, but the problem goes deeper than that. #MillennialMon | |
Debra Isaacs Schafer @DebraISchafer @YoungInvincible A2: Sure...it can be part of the "experience" once in a while, yet students often go sans food for days. Or eat once every other day/1 meal. It impacts everything...performance, health, etc. And many are housing insecure as well. #MillennialMon | |
Tom Allison @tomallison @YoungInvincible A2: Hunger impairs cognitive development into adolescence and adulthood, leading to poorer test scores and the inability to fully engage in classes #MillennialMon https://t.co/v83cdqo6fO | |

Kristin McGuire @Im_Just_Krissy Q2: Nope. For low income students, the "struggle life" is not romanticized nor fun. It's real. And these poor food options and lack of nutrition lead to deadly preventable illnesses like diabetes and hypertension. Folks should have to starve to get a degree. #MillennialMon https://t.co/LeXYRw6dLD | |

Young Invincibles @YoungInvincible Q3: What kind of problems can food insecurity cause for students? #MillennialMon | |
Generation Progress @genprogress Shocking: 2 out 3 community college students face food insecurity. 50% face housing insecurity. 14% are homeless. But sure, society can keep blaming Millennials for all problems. #MillennialMon | |

#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour A3. Food insecurity not only affects our ability to focus and complete assignments but it also diminishes our self-esteem and autonomy. #MillennialMon https://t.co/ys421hXGYJ | |
Debra Isaacs Schafer @DebraISchafer A3: Overall development (they're still children), health, studying, ability to focus, social, having to choose between books or food. Many problems. #MillennialMon | |
Young Invincibles @YoungInvincible RT @IsisThaSaviour: A3. Food insecurity not only affects our ability to focus and complete assignments but it also diminishes our self-esteem and autonomy. #MillennialMon https://t.co/ys421hXGYJ | |
Tom Allison @tomallison @YoungInvincible A3: As if today's students didn't have enough roadblocks already, between tuition, fees, childcare, transportation...throwing hunger into the mix can severely impact students' abilities to graduate. After all, only half of students earn degrees on time #MillennialMon | |
#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour A3. Students often blame themselves for their inability to meet the unrealistic financial demands of higher ed. #MillennialMon | |
Kristin McGuire @Im_Just_Krissy Q3: Food Insecurity is a barrier to completion. Not having enough to eat leads to lower grades and test scores, longer completion time and increase in drop out rates. In addition to all of that, it also causes deadly illnesses. #MillennialMon https://t.co/PRyzl6RVUM | |
Higher Ed, Not Debt @HigherEdNotDebt @YoungInvincible A2. Low-cost, high-sodium, fatty foods shouldn't *have* be the health cost in order to pay for an ever-increasing cost of a degree. Narratives that justify this misunderstand the degree of poverty among college students today, and the use of food banks by students. #MillennialMon | |
Young Invincibles @YoungInvincible Q4: What are some of the roadblocks students encounter when it comes to solving this issue on their own? #MillennialMon | |
#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour A3. Food helps fuel the mind and gives the body the necessary nutrients to produce energy. When students lack energy they also lack the ability to perform all forms of work🏃♀️💨 #MillennialMon | |

Tom Allison @tomallison @YoungInvincible A4: The fed govt certainly doesn't make it easy to get help. College students need to work 20+ hours per week to qualify #MillennialMon | |

Karissa Anderson @About_MyBizness A3: Hunger can cause a number of problems physically, mentally, and emotionally! You can't learn if you're hungry. #millennialmon | |
Young Invincibles @YoungInvincible RT @tomallison: @YoungInvincible A4: @YoungInvincible A4: The fed govt certainly doesn't make it easy to get help. College students need to work 20+ hours per week to qualify #MillennialMon | |
#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour A4. Many students like myself have sought out resources both on campus and off. As a mother, I received $357 a month in food stamps. But as soon as I obtained a job making barely $1000 a month after taxes, my benefits were drastically cut. #MillennialMon https://t.co/cjb4BBP9P8 | |
Clare Cady @ClareCady Q1. It is pervasive within the student experience - in community colleges in particular. https://t.co/bQi263W3cd #MillennialMon https://t.co/A6cd2iJY8G | |
Debra Isaacs Schafer @DebraISchafer A4: Lack of familiarity with local/on-campus resources/support; embarrassment; do not want to disclose their situation. #MillennialMon | |
Karissa Anderson @About_MyBizness A4: Getting foodstamps is very difficult if you're a FT student, meal plans are expensive (and usually offer unhealthy food options), few campuses have pantries that are accessible/minimize shame #millennialmon | |
#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour A4. Ironically students who don't have children have it even worst. Typically they are denied benefits for not having a job. #MillennialMon | |

Young Invincibles @YoungInvincible Q5: How do SNAP benefits play a role in addressing student hunger? #MillennialMon | |
Generation Progress @genprogress Fight college student hunger: you can donate college meal credits, food to a local campus food pantry, or funds to @SwipeHunger, @SingleStop, or @CUFBA. #MillennialMon | |
Clare Cady @ClareCady Q2. In work with @CUFBA and @wihopelab we hear ramen narrative a lot, and it trivializes the experience of hunger among students. Hunger is not a rite of passage. #MillennialMon https://t.co/MlAY1XFIpU | |

Higher Ed, Not Debt @HigherEdNotDebt @YoungInvincible A5. SNAP benefits play a significant role in addressing food security, but only ¼ of food-insecure, non-parenting students receive SNAP due to the program’s 20-hours/week work requirement. #MillennialMon https://t.co/FmOz2iAFh2 | |
Karissa Anderson @About_MyBizness A4: Cafeteria hours can sometimes be unaccommodating for students and if you're in college in a small town getting to/from the store can be hard forcing folks to go without or subsist on plastic quasi-foods #millennialmon | |
Clare Cady @ClareCady Q3: Lower grades Higher health risks Absenteeism Mental health challenges Dropping out #MillennialMon https://t.co/XljlI7cNY1 | |

Clare Cady @ClareCady Q4: Shame. Fear and shame. #MillennialMon https://t.co/TgNqX6AMcr | |
#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour A5. SNAP benefits can reduce the stress of food insecurity amongst college students by offering immediate assistance. While also helping to cut some of the cost associated with higher ed. See a need fill a need💜 #MillennialMon https://t.co/qO6KkuVVxx | |
Karissa Anderson @About_MyBizness A5: The 20 hour/week requirement for students w/o children is a large hindrance to students' ability to receive SNAP. Forcing students to work that many hours (if they aren't already) will make them sacrifice either sleep or study time. #millennialmon | |
Tom Allison @tomallison @YoungInvincible A5: SNAP should be an obvious federal solution to student hunger; vouchers can only be used for qualified food purchases. Unfortunately, only 18% of students are eligible, and only 3% actually receive benefits #MillennialMon https://t.co/Icx4FJ1DKU | |

Kristin McGuire @Im_Just_Krissy Q5: It COULD be life saving. But in reality, the eligibility requirements are so stringent, many students who need the benefit, can't get the benefit. #MillennialMon https://t.co/mQ6TbQB5AB | |

Young Invincibles @YoungInvincible Q6: What role can the federal and state governments play in increasing SNAP participation among eligible students? #MillennialMon | |
Karissa Anderson @About_MyBizness @tomallison Right! It doesn't make any sense for this to be a requirement. #MillennialMon | |
Higher Ed, Not Debt @HigherEdNotDebt @YoungInvincible A6. Policy makers could expand SNAP eligibility requirements for college students to allow all work-study to count towards the work requirement. #MillennialMon https://t.co/uSpo5giHks | |
Higher Ed, Not Debt @HigherEdNotDebt @YoungInvincible A6. Only about one-quarter of food-insecure students receive help from SNAP. #MillennialMon https://t.co/XAsY207Z7a | |
Karissa Anderson @About_MyBizness A6: SNAP and benefits like it are constantly under threat by state/federal governments - the role they COULD play would be to make sure we are taking care of the vulnerable populations served by these programs instead of imposing more stringent eligibility reqs #millennialmon | |
Young Invincibles @YoungInvincible RT @HigherEdNotDebt: @YoungInvincible A6. Policy makers could expand SNAP eligibility requirements for college students to allow all work-study to count towards the work requirement. #MillennialMon https://t.co/uSpo5giHks | |
Tom Allison @tomallison @YoungInvincible A6: Congress should drop the work requirement for college students in the Farm Bill; or even better, grant universal eligibility to all students on a Pell Grant #MillennialMon | |

#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour There needs to be a dialogue between the state and higher ed institutions that's geared towards raising awareness. Info sessions and workshops are needed to inform students about these resources. #MillennialMon https://t.co/7MhHtxx2Gz | |
Karissa Anderson @About_MyBizness A6: Lessen the work requirement (or do away with it!) to 10 hours as research shows students shouldn't work more than 10 hours in order to be academically on par #millennialmon | |
Young Invincibles @YoungInvincible Q7: What have states already done to address student hunger? Are there models out there for other states to follow? #MillennialMon | |
Karissa Anderson @About_MyBizness T H I S #MillennialMon https://t.co/5zlY6GfuPK | |
Generation Progress @genprogress Make sure your lawmakers support government programs that help fight student hunger, like SNAP! They could do even more by expanding SNAP eligibility to students who can’t meet the 20+ hours per week work requirement. #MillennialMon | |
#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour A6. Raising awareness is vital! It could mean the difference in a student dropping out vs. accessing the help they need! #MillennialMon | |
Debra Isaacs Schafer @DebraISchafer @IsisThaSaviour And to work toward removing the stigma of having needs...whether hunger, housing, mental health...whatever are the barriers to helping college students succeed and complete what they're working so hard to achieve. #MillennialMon | |
Clare Cady @ClareCady RT @About_MyBizness: T H I S #MillennialMon https://t.co/5zlY6GfuPK | |
Higher Ed, Not Debt @HigherEdNotDebt @YoungInvincible A7. Making colleges free for students through @College_Promise programs would be a direct benefit to all students, but especially those who face food insecurity. Several states have taken up this cause already #MillennialMon | |
Kristin McGuire @Im_Just_Krissy A7: Great work is being done in California. Bills like AB 1747 and AB 453 are moving in the right direction. Shout out to @AsmShirleyWeber, @AsmMoniqueLimon, @Western_Center, @SwipeHunger & @YoungInvincible #MillennialMon https://t.co/HiyYUf07Oz | |
#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour A7. One initiative that has proven to be effective is our #free national school lunch program but it's only reserved for grades K-12th. Higher ed advocates like @saragoldrickrab have suggested it be extended to college students. This would we be a game changer! #MillennialMon https://t.co/m4ZnHrF85X | |
Higher Ed, Not Debt @HigherEdNotDebt @YoungInvincible @College_Promise A7. Federally, ensuring a year-round Pell Grant program would help those students dealing with financial pressures between semesters, and help them cover living expenses. #MillennialMon | |

Debra Isaacs Schafer @DebraISchafer @HigherEdNotDebt @YoungInvincible @College_Promise Thought the Pell was available year-round...did I miss something on this? #MillennialMon | |
#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour A8. Higher ed institutions could help out more by offering free snack packs, food stipends and or meals at a reduced rate for students living below the poverty line. #MillennialMon https://t.co/7DGCYMChUO | |

Debra Isaacs Schafer @DebraISchafer A8: Open food pantries (but change the name), have campus-wide discussions about food insecurity, host dinners in the community, allow students to donate unused meals. #MillennialMon | |

Young Invincibles @YoungInvincible Q9: What are ways students, staff, and faculty members can get involved in addressing this issue? #MillennialMon | |
Kristin McGuire @Im_Just_Krissy Q8: Schools could implement a meal credit donation program, offer meal vouchers for students who receive Pell or the State University Grant (California). Just a few of my crazy ideas. #MillennialMon https://t.co/urYIMqesRA | |
Karissa Anderson @About_MyBizness A8: Free or reduced cost meal plans for students with financial need, easily accessible food pantries on campus/in res halls, talking openly about resources for folks w/o food (removing stigma), emergency aid to folks w/o food in the form of grocery gift cards #MillennialMon | |
Tom Allison @tomallison A8: I love @saragoldrickrab 's idea of including a note on basic needs in course syllabi. Couldn't institutions show leadership here and encourage other faculy to follow suit? https://t.co/MRUF5ku7Z1 #MillennialMon https://t.co/z9TKNQ2h6X | |

Higher Ed, Not Debt @HigherEdNotDebt @YoungInvincible A8. In 2017, Houston Community College partnered with the Houston Food Bank to provide food scholarships that students could use twice a month at pantries across the city, each close to a campus. #MillennialMon.

Generation Progress @genprogress RT @About_MyBizness: A3: A3: Hunger can cause a number of problems physically, mentally, and emotionally! You can't learn if you're hungry. #millennialmon | |
Generation Progress @genprogress RT @Im_Just_Krissy: Q2: Q2: Nope. For low income students, the "struggle life" is not romanticized nor fun. It's real. And these poor food options and lack of nutrition lead to deadly preventable illnesses like diabetes and hypertension. Folks should have to starve to get a degree. #MillennialMon https://t.co/LeXYRw6dLD | |

Kristin McGuire @Im_Just_Krissy Q9: In California, students can connect with their student governments like @csustudents @SSCCC_OFFICIAL @_UCSA Or they can contact @YoungInvincible. Students are organizing throughout the state. there are tons of ways to plug in. #MillennialMon https://t.co/D1SOX6vCIR | |
Young Invincibles @YoungInvincible Q10: What are ways people in outside of the campus community can get involved in addressing this issue? #MillennialMon | |
Karissa Anderson @About_MyBizness A8/9 Never hold a student meeting without food, don't ask students to do things for the university w/o paying them for their time #millennialmon | |
Generation Progress @genprogress RT @tomallison: A8: A8: I love @saragoldrickrab 's idea of including a note on basic needs in course syllabi. Couldn't institutions show leadership here and encourage other faculy to follow suit? https://t.co/MRUF5ku7Z1 #MillennialMon https://t.co/z9TKNQ2h6X | |
Generation Progress @genprogress RT @IsisThaSaviour: A7. One initiative that has proven to be effective is our #free national school lunch program but it's only reserved for grades K-12th. Higher ed advocates like @saragoldrickrab have suggested it be extended to college students. This would we be a game changer! #MillennialMon https://t.co/m4ZnHrF85X | |
So it goes... @melaniesdavis RT @About_MyBizness: A3: A3: Hunger can cause a number of problems physically, mentally, and emotionally! You can't learn if you're hungry. #millennialmon | |
#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour Faculty and staff can support by giving students a platform to share their stories. Elevating our voices while encouraging other students to join the conversation could be a very powerful testament to their commitment to eradicating campus hunger! #MillennialMon https://t.co/NtUnnNz78T | |

Kristin McGuire @Im_Just_Krissy Q10: In 2016, 30mil kids participated in National School lunch program. We need to realize these kids become low income college students& still need assistance. If we look at this as a community problem, not an individual one &find a lasting solution. #MillennialMon https://t.co/ztQAhOJsWa | |

melissa “cancelled student debt” byrne @mcbyrne Which is also why the sole focus on free community college leaves poor students behind. It cuts off the push for free college at residentials schools. #MillennialMon https://t.co/RH3aWjM76I | |

#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour RT @EdNavigation: A9: A9: By engaging all stakeholders including faculty as often times they "see" things others may not. Make food like air...something we all need to survive and thrive. #MillennialMon | |
#SpreadThaGospel @IsisThaSaviour RT @EdNavigation: A8: A8: Open food pantries (but change the name), have campus-wide discussions about food insecurity, host dinners in the community, allow students to donate unused meals. #MillennialMon | |
