"Propel, a company that provides financial services to low-income people, found in a survey that 31% of its users reported relying on friends and family for food in June, up from 19% in February, before the expanded benefits ended." reuters.com/world/us/us-hu…

This is a very important role. Please think about people in the DC/Maryland/Virginia area that might be a good fit. Thanks. x.com/USDResponse/st…

Every other Capitol building fighting for 2nd place.

Dear friends and colleagues, I'm thrilled to share that I've recently joined the Maryland Department of Labor's (very) new paid Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) program!

The hellsite is recommending I follow the fake account responsible for the egregious misinformation. Sigh.

Making sure you (yes, YOU🫵🫵🫵) saw the sign-on letter for orgs that Prosperity Now & CLASP is circulating for consumerfinance.gov to support #SNAP data protections.🖊️🖊️🖊️ Let's do this! votervoice.net/prosperitynow/…

I grew up with PBS NewsHour on TV every night. Grateful to make an appearance last night to talk about Propel: pbs.org/newshour/show/…

BREAKING: The Providers app is now Propel! After a decade of serving low-income Americans, we're unifying our company and app names. Not changing: our commitment to helping households with low-incomes improve their financial health. Read more: propel.app/blog/providers…

Excited to share that "Customer Insights on EBT Theft" was just published in APHSA 's "Policy & Practice" magazine. See insights distilled from more than 10,000 EBT accountholders, including >1,700 victims of EBT theft. trayinc.cld.bz/Policy-Practic…

Going to be presenting on this Monday w/ Salaam Bhatti. Looking forward to sharing what we've heard from folks who use EBT, & new security tools from @thepropelapp. RSVP==>

Glad to be able to share some insight from Propel users here. There's room for improvement, but participating states deserve credit for standing up #SUNBucks and delivering for families. Non-participating states should take note--this $$ makes a difference.

Our Pulse Survey collects insight from thousands of Americans with low-incomes. What did they tell us in August 2024? #FoodInsecurity #FinancialInsecurity #HousingInsecurity are all ⬇️ from 1 year ago. Read the report==> propel.app/insights/augus…

#SummerEBT ~80% of respondents who received #SUNBucks expressed satisfaction-- "It was life saving. I didn't know where my next meal was coming." - Propel user, CA “The only way to get fresh produce and healthier foods vs prepared boxed stuff.” -Propel user, OH

I'll be presenting insights from more than 10,000 Propel users who shared their experience of account protection, EBT theft, and applying for reimbursement. Check it out==>

This is not abstract. The difficulty of navigating public benefits' convoluted jargon is more visible than it has ever been before:

For what it's worth, I'm not just a critic, I'm doing something about it — writing *lots* of *practical* help for the questions people have specifically navigating SNAP: propel.app/snap/
