The County of Santa Clara has created a webpage to educate people about the impacts of the massive federal funding cuts for health care and food assistance: scc.info/federalfunding

Extraordinary federal funding cuts are threatening programs and services that benefit our entire community.

The County faces more than $1 billion in federal funding cuts per year, which puts health care and food assistance at risk for tens of thousands of vulnerable County residents. These federal cuts will have a direct and unprecedented impact on the County’s public hospital and health care system, which provides critical and life-saving care to everyone in our community, regardless of insurance status.

The County has created a webpage with the latest information about the federal funding crisis. To learn more, go to scc.info/federalfunding.
