Plain-language change summary

The recent amendment to Senate Bill 778 removes the option for providing off-campus food pantries or food distributions. This change means that the focus will solely be on establishing food support services directly on college campuses. This matters because it may streamline resources and ensure that students have easier access to food assistance while they are on campus, addressing immediate needs in a more direct way.
