American Rescue Plan (ARPA) Funding
The American Rescue Plan will deliver $350 billion for eligible state, local, territorial, and Tribal governments to respond to the COVID-19 emergency and bring back jobs. The Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds provide a substantial infusion of resources to help turn the tide on the pandemic, address its economic fallout, and lay the foundation for a strong and equitable recovery.
SNAP and MassHealth Support
Thousands of Cambridge residents are being impacted by federal changes to SNAP and MassHealth eligibility. The City of Cambridge, Cambridge Economic Opportunity Committee, the Cambridge Community Foundation, and more than 30 community partners have created a coordinated network to help residents understand the changes, re-enroll in benefits if they are still eligible, and other resources to help them.
