The House concurrent resolution designates February 6, 2025, as 3SquaresVT Awareness Day at the State House, highlighting the importance of the 3SquaresVT program, which is Vermont's implementation of the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). This initiative is crucial in the fight against hunger in Vermont, as it provides significant support through food shelves, pantries, meal sites, and various community organizations. The resolution notes that 3SquaresVT is an effective program, delivering nine meals for every one meal provided by the charitable food system, and serves over 65,000 Vermonters, including many children, seniors, and individuals with disabilities.

The resolution emphasizes the program's role in promoting food security and economic vitality within local communities by ensuring that benefits are redeemed at local businesses, thereby supporting the state's economy. It acknowledges the growing number of individuals at risk of hunger, particularly among households with children, and calls for recognition of the efforts made by various stakeholders to combat food insecurity. By designating a specific day for awareness, the General Assembly aims to raise public consciousness about the importance of 3SquaresVT and the ongoing need to address hunger in Vermont.
