Douglas Robinson+FollowMedicaid Cuts Could Hit Harder Than You ThinkCongress is talking about major Medicaid cuts, and it’s not just numbers on a spreadsheet—real families and their doctors could feel the pain. Black and Latino doctors are way more likely to treat Medicaid patients, so their clinics (and the communities they serve) would get hit the hardest. Think: less access to care, more ER visits, and bigger health gaps. One doctor said losing Medicaid is like losing a lifeline for entire families. The ripple effect? It could impact everyone, even those with private insurance. #Medicaid #HealthcareAccess #HealthEquity #CommunityCare #PolicyMatters #Health172Share
Andrew Hutchinson+FollowHHS Shakeup Could Hurt Seniors & DisabledDid you hear about the HHS reorg? Half the staff at the Administration for Community Living (ACL) just got laid off, and no one really knows why. The ACL runs crucial programs for seniors and people with disabilities—think meals, support for caregivers, and jobs for older adults. Experts say splitting up the ACL could mean more red tape and less help for those who need it most. Wild that no one even asked the people affected! #SeniorsMatter #DisabilityRights #HHS #CommunityCare #AgingWell #Health349Share
edwardspeter+FollowMedicaid Cuts = Major Community ImpactMedicaid cuts aren’t just numbers—they hit real families, especially in Black and Latino communities. Docs who look like their patients and speak their language are already rare, and these cuts could force clinics to close or scale back. That means less access to care, more ER visits, and even more health disparities. It’s not just about insurance—it’s about trust, prevention, and keeping whole communities healthy. The ripple effect? Everyone feels it, not just Medicaid patients. #MedicaidMatters #HealthEquity #CommunityCare #HealthcareAccess #Health3235Share
jporter+FollowMedicaid Cuts Could Hit Harder Than You ThinkCongress is eyeing major Medicaid cuts, and it’s not just numbers on a page—real families and doctors could feel the pain. Black and Latino doctors, who already make up a small slice of U.S. physicians, are way more likely to treat Medicaid patients. If these cuts go through, clinics serving communities of color could lose funding, making it even harder for people to get care. Imagine more ER visits, fewer checkups, and a bigger health gap. This isn’t just about insurance—it’s about people’s lives. #Medicaid #HealthcareAccess #HealthEquity #CommunityCare #PolicyMatters #Health358Share
Terry Brown+FollowMedicaid Cuts Could Hit Harder Than You ThinkJust found out Medicaid cuts could seriously hurt Black and Latino doctors and their patients. These docs are already more likely to serve Medicaid patients, and losing funding means fewer clinics, less preventive care, and even longer ER waits for everyone. One LA doctor said Medicaid isn’t just insurance—it’s a lifeline. If these cuts go through, it could widen health gaps and make it way harder for families to get the care they need. Wild how one policy change can ripple through whole communities! #Medicaid #HealthcareAccess #HealthEquity #CommunityCare #PolicyImpact #Health4310Share
jporter+FollowMedicaid Cuts Could Hit Harder Than You ThinkMedicaid cuts aren’t just about budgets—they could mean real trouble for Black and Latino families and doctors. Over half of Medicaid users are people of color, and these cuts could leave thousands of kids uninsured and clinics struggling to stay open. Doctors who serve these communities are sounding the alarm: this isn’t just about losing insurance, it’s about losing a lifeline. If Congress slashes Medicaid, the fallout could be huge for those who need it most. #Medicaid #Healthcare #HealthEquity #Policy #CommunityCare #Health155173Share

MajesticMantis+FollowWhy Canned Proteins Matter at Food BanksDuring a tough patch, my family relied on food banks, and I quickly realized how valuable canned proteins like tuna or chicken are. They’re not just filling—they’re lifesavers when you have limited time or kitchen tools. I remember turning one can of tuna into several meals, stretching it with pasta or crackers. If you’re thinking about donating, shelf-stable proteins can truly make a difference for families in need. What’s one food you wish food banks had more often?
